The Purpose of this Series on Medium and Substack
In each episode, we introduce you to some newsletters of our contributors and publish them on both platforms. This offer is open to all authentic writers adhering to platform rules and our publication guidelines. We don’t allow harmful content, plagiarism, and AI-written content. We accept newsletters on any topic.
In this series, we give you several options on eclectic topics. Please check out these newsletters covering different topics, consider following the profiles, and subscribe if they resonate with you. We will continue introducing many more newsletters like this through our publication on Medium and Substack.
If you have a Substack newsletter or have favorite ones, you are welcome to nominate them in the comments section of this story. As Dr. Broadly puts it, ‘Don’t be shy, mates — shyness will only get you a VIP pass to your own couch!’ 😆
Please join this new Note and drop your profile or an inspiring post in this new Substack Note, where we can find you for next episodes.

What Is Substack Mastery Boost
As announced in the previous updates we are now ready to kickstart this exciting program planned for 12 months to try. If it becomes successful, we will offer a low-cost education and marketing service to freelance writers and entrepreneurs who want to scale their writing and content marketing business.
In short, Substack Mastery Boost is an educational, collaborative, and promotional tool for our community to shine and illuminate our readers. We are a diverse and inclusive community and look forward to your support and meaningful engagement with our community for mutual growth. We now have a Ko-Fi page to update you.
We have a strategy and plan for our 3 tier members. All authentic and ethical writers are invited to join our journey free or paid if they can afford it. We opened a collaboration channel on ILLUMINATION’s Slack workspace to support members.
To make them easier and more manageable, we updated submission guidelines for our major publications such as ILLUMINATION, Curated Newsletters, SYNERGY (Newsletter Booster), Technology Hits, and ILLUMINATION Book Chapters, Readers Hope, Magnetic Newsletter Pro, and Health & Science Publication.
Our new publication Substack Mastery Boost will be the tool on Medium to connect freelance writers among multiple platforms. Substack Mastery Boost Publication Submission Guidelines.
In addition, we created a new initiative called ILLUMINATION Health & Wellness Network. Dr Yildiz explained the purpose and strategy of this new venture will will support our writers, readers, and collaborators.
Why I Created a Health and Wellness Network on Substack & How I Will Support It
Welcome to the new ILLUMINATION Health and Wellness network for healthcare professionals, business people, and health…medium.comHe now integrates our Health/Wellness network with freelancing one to create a better synergy. In a such a short time 68K+ members joined our networks.
We will guide you through ILLUMINATION Library for Freelance Writers and our upcoming unique community publication ILLUMINATION Writing Academy. Dr Yildiz educates and inspires his subscribers through Content Marketing Strategy Insights.
Thank you for following and subscribing to our publication on Substack. We can now easily find your newsletters and feature them in our curated collection. By using the power of Medium and Substack platforms, we will help you build your audience with collaboration and joy. Without a community, Substack could be lonely for freelance writers.
To support our community of writers Dr Yildiz authored an educational and comprehensive book, Substack Mastery, which will guide you on this journey. His book helped many writers to start Substack easily. Those writers are now building their audiences, and some even have paid members. You can read the chapters for free on Medium via the following links in the first chapter: Preface of “Substack Mastery” for Beta Readers.
His new book A Powerful Toolkit for Advanced Substack Newsletter Mastery was published and now available in book stores. However, he will offer the chapters of both books including the audio versions in his Content Marketing Strategy Insights publication on Substack.
Our editor, curator, and media coordinator Aiden created an education program titled From Zero to Substack Hero based on his Substack books. His program, Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 are published on Udemy with discount vouchers for Medium and Substack writers. It will be around 65 modules. Aiden also shares the videos with the members of Content Marketing Strategy Insights on Substack.
Integrating Substack with Medium is an excellent approach. Now is the best time to start Substack, considering the challenges of Medium, which is no longer a sole income option for many freelance writers. Diversifying your content is the best approach from our experience.
Guest Blogging for Writers and YouTube Channel
Dr Yildiz opened his website to guest bloggers, a community blogging facility. So, we introduce a new blogging environment on our website to enhance the visibility of Medium stories and Substack newsletters. This approach will boost SEO, making it easier for readers to discover content through search engines and increasing the likelihood of converting visitors into newsletter subscribers.
We are launching a video and podcasting service on our community YouTube channel, further expanding the reach and visibility of our writers’ work across multiple mediums. Our media coordinator Aiden will be leading this initiative.
He created a short video with some descriptions of the services we will provide. Join our exciting journey to reap the benefits of community spirit. Please subscribe to our Substack Channel to get Curated Content from Experienced Writers. Aiden will post our podcasts to our YouTube channel with subtitles.
Inspiration for Beginners from Writer Interviews
Dr Yildiz interviewed some influential or best-selling authors on Substack to inspire you. Now our new team Substack Boost Pilot will publish interview stories. If you want to be interviewed, please leave a comment on the attached story. Friends of ILLUMINATION Support team will organize this activity.
