New Horizons for Authors: ILLUMINATION Book Chapters Launch
Written on
Welcome to Our Editorial Bulletin
Dear Literary Enthusiasts and Writers,
I'm thrilled to announce the expansion of our digital library, which is rapidly evolving. We have welcomed numerous talented authors to our initiative.
Our online library, known as ILLUMINATION Book Chapters, is specifically tailored for Medium members. Each day, we present a variety of fresh chapters from published works, available for free to our members.
We continuously update our collection, ensuring that our library remains accessible around the clock from anywhere in the world.
This platform provides an incredible chance for creators to engage with new audiences, allowing authors to share their exceptional content and monetize their work.
I have carefully reviewed your insightful feedback from our latest survey. Thank you for your encouragement, which propels us to enhance our services.
New readers and authors can explore our offerings through the following link.
In this bulletin, I am excited to share some recent developments.
Today, we highlight one of our authors, The Garrulous Glaswegian, who has featured the talented poet Ivette Cruz in a captivating YouTube video.

We are excited to welcome several new authors, including Christie Adams, Dr. Fatima Imam, Michelle Forsyth, Veronika Kaufmann, Trista Signe Ainsworth, Daniella Mini, Wry Welwood, Libby Mitchell, Marne Platt, Brian Loo Soon Hua, Ruby Lee, Greg Aunapu, Stephen J. Lalla, LMNOP, and Laurie Weiss, PhD.
You can easily find chapters through a dedicated index at the top of our publication, which we update daily with new links.

Suggestions for Authors
In prior bulletins, I suggested crafting a summary of your book in story format for submission to ILLUMINATION.
You are welcome to create a concise version of your narrative and submit it to ILLUMINATION-Curated. You have access as a writer to this publication.
We also have a collaboration group on Goodreads, a substantial platform that connects authors and book lovers. Please join our group to meet fellow members and expand your network.
Additionally, I want to emphasize the significance of tags. Medium has improved the design and functionality of tag pages.
Beyond your primary tags like fiction and writing, consider using "illumination" and "illumination-book chapters." These tags are popular among our community members and can enhance the visibility of your stories.

For new and potential contributors, please take a moment to review our value proposition for ILLUMINATION Book Chapters.
Value of ILLUMINATION Book Chapters
We provide three unique advantages to writers:
- Published authors can attract new readers through repurposed book chapters and earn income from their published content on Medium.
- They can gain new followers and beta readers who can offer feedback on their manuscripts.
- Aspiring writers can develop manuscripts from their published stories, incorporating them into ILLUMINATION Book Chapters, receiving reader reviews, and later publishing them as full books.
Allow me to share some example chapters submitted to ILLUMINATION Book Chapters as we rapidly expand this service.
Chapters List
Given the extensive number of chapters, I can no longer list links in my bulletins. Instead, you can find them in our index, which includes authors' names, book titles, and chapter numbers, organized monthly. This master index will serve as our curated collection.
Feel free to enjoy some chapters from this collection.

Linda Kowalchek "I've dreamed of writing a book since I was a teenager. I vividly recall sitting at my childhood desk with my blue plastic Smith Corona typewriter, ready to create. Yet, I had no idea what to write about, so I ended up watching Luke and Laura’s wedding on General Hospital. But I digress."

Jay Toran "For those of you who’ve eagerly started typing your initial chapters, you must understand a few critical things. It all comes down to the limited time that editors have. No amount of hurried writing can circumvent this issue. While I'm not an editor, I’ve assisted with editing for some notable names here on ILLUMINATION."
