Featured Newsletters by Substack Mastery Boost Pilot: Episode 14
Curated newsletters of writers contributing to the Substack Mastery publication on Medium to create synergy
Curated Newsletters
Dear Writers and Readers,
Happy November, we were unable to post curated newsletters in October as we were busy with the design and testing of our new Substack Mastery Boost pilot. As announced by our chief editor Dr Mehmet Yildiz (Main) yesterday in the monthly updates we are now geared to kickstart this exciting program.
ILLUMINATION Integrated Publications: October 2024 Updates Changes, new submission guidelines, and kick-start of our Substack Mastery pilot for membersmedium.com
Dr Yildiz clearly articulated the purpose of the initiative and created an empowering strategy and path for the team. All authentic and ethical writers are invited to join our journey. We opened a 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.
Thank you for following and subscribing to our site 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 writers.
Substack Mastery Boost is an educational, collaborative, and promotional tool for our community to shine and illuminate society. Thank you for joining our exciting journey. 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.
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 hundreds of 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:
Preface of “Substack Mastery” for Beta Readers, Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 3, Chapter 4, Chapter 5, Chapter 6, Chapter 7, Chapter 8, Chapter 9, Chapter 10, Chapter 11, Chapter 12, Chapter 13, Chapter 14, Chapter 15, Chapter 16, Chapter 17, Chapter 18, Chapter 19…
Integrating Substack with Medium is an excellent approach. To this end, as a community builder, Dr Yildiz created a philanthropic organization that will empower creators, freelance writers, and content entrepreneurs with a commercial arm. He documented the strategy and high-level plan in a story. Please feel free to ask questions and provide feedback.
Here are our draft service definitions for creators, freelance writers, and content entrepreneurs. We will explain the details in our upcoming newsletter.
Now is the best time to start Substack as the platform is subsidizing writers to increase their paid subscribers. Please check out this story to learn about the details and gain inspiration.
Freelance Writers, Don’t Miss This Fantastic Opportunity! My paid Substack subscribers increased by at least 30% in the first three days of November, and I have a plan for you.medium.com
We also have a publication on Medium as we integrate it with Substack to give a competitive edge to our writers.
A Brief Intro to Substack Mastery Publication on Medium
The Substack Mastery publication is an education, collaboration, and promotion tool for creators, freelancer writers, and content entrepreneurs both on Medium and Substack. We have a public publication on Medium where subscribers can introduce their newsletters. Please review the Submission Guidelines for Substack Mastery on Medium. We link sample stories after featured newsletters.
The purpose of Substack Mastery is to educate beginners, help members collaborate, and promote their newsletters on multiple platforms like Medium, Substack, Quora, LinkedIn, and social media tools like Facebook, X, and Reddit. In addition, Dr Yildiz will amplify them through his social network and Content Strategy, Development, & Marketing Insights.
Guest Blogging for Writers
Dr Yildiz opened his website to guest bloggers, a community blogging facility. Now, 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.
YouTube Channel for Freelancers
We are launching a new 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 (Owner of Illumination Gaming) 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 all our podcasts to our YouTube channel with subtitles.
Inspiration for Beginners from Writer Interviews
Dr Yildiz interviewed some of influential or best-selling authors on Substack to inspire you. You can find them from the attached collection.

1moYou are a hard man to keep in sight. For now, I am resisting the move to Substack since mechanics have little interest. But kudos to you for your help and production; I am in awe. You are an inspiration! But so far, I am still looking for the next compelling topic, my current focus.
