A New Venture and A New Service
ILLUMINATION Integrated publications introduces Book Chapters service
Dear friends,
The purpose of this short post is to inform you of our progress and introduce our new initiative giving our writers a clearer path to grow.
Since the last post, we have grown even further. ILLUMINATION has completed its 9th milestone and has now 92,000 followers and 9,000 contributing writers. ILLUMINATION-Curated achieved its 3rd milestone and is now followed by over 30,000 readers. SYNERGY and Technology hits are also growing rapidly. Our virtual workspace, Slack, has 6,979 members engaging with each other meaningfully.
Based on feedback, we created a connection list for our writers. This list is protected to use only by our registered writers. It is growing now. Please only provide information you want to share with the fellow writers. It is optional, of course. Some of you may provide only Medium profile and other writing profiles to gain new followers.
New Service
Let me introduce our new initiative called ILLUMINATION Book Chapters.
This new service offers three unique values to writers and authors.
1 — Published authors can gain new readers via their repurposed book chapters. They can also earn income from their published content on Medium.
2 — Published authors can gain new followers and beta readers who can provide feedback for their new manuscripts.
3 — Aspiring writers can gain by creating manuscripts derived from their published stories. They can transfer them into the ILLUMINATION Book Chapters, obtain reader reviews, and publish them as books later.
Links and details are in my latest editorial bulletin for Book Chapters.
Action 1
Please follow the publication and request to become a writer if you have published books or progressing manuscripts via this weblink. We will help you become a published author.
Action 2
We created a preliminary list of contributing writers and their chapters. Please connect and engage with them meaningfully and start networking with these published authors. Networking is critical for your success. The more extensive a network we have, the more visible our content can get. With ongoing engagement, we can convert our followers to regular readers. Meaningful engagement and collaborative networking are critical to building a fan base for writers.
Action 3
If you want to repurpose your Medium content by publishing on other platforms and monetising your content, please contact me on Slack. I will get you started. I have helped many writers begin with Vocal Media and News Break. They are now monetising content on these platforms and building new audiences. Vocal is a low hanging fruit. You can create an account and start repurposing your Medium content and earn income. I also suggest you apply for News Break. Here is the link to the application form. And if you can please follow my News Break profile, I’d appreciate it and follow you back in your preferred networks.
As you may have already noticed, we established a specialised publication for freelance writers, editors, and bloggers, aiming to bring all writers who write about writing in one place. It is called SYNERGY. The publication is growing rapidly. It has received great acceptance by many top writers, and Medium has already curated many stories. Details of SYNERGY are in this article. If you don’t have writer access to SYNERGY, please send a request via this weblink.
My vision and primary goal is to see all our writers grow and become successful with meaningful and productive collaboration. By leveraging each other’s network, we can grow faster and reap many benefits. And the more we give, the more we receive.
New Venture
I have created a new strategy and roadmap for your growth. I integrated all publications. Our new venture is called ILLUMINATION Integrated Publications (IPP). IPP has over 127,000 followers and 9,000 contributors. Details are in a story titled How We Created A Roadmap For 9,000 Writers To Shine.
I look forward to hosting, reading, and promoting your content on Medium and beyond.
Please consider creating short-form stories among our publications to give a second life to your long form stories.
Thank you for reading our newsletter, and we look forward to your collaboration.
Best regards,
Dr Mehmet Yildiz
