G’day folks,

This is my second collection one after several months. If you are a new writer and reader my post might surprise you so I will give a very quick background on this series. Over the last two years Aiden and I as editors and content curators of ILLUMINATION publications. Aiden, as a young person, said he would do the new stories and yours truly as an elderly decided to do nostalgic ones.

I read thousands of stories from our repositories and curated the ones which resonated with me. The last collection #226 I posted from the Illumination editorial account was on 14 January 2025. Then something awful happened on Medium and even our chief editor Dr Yildiz paused writing and publishing here but fortunately the issue was fixed and he returned to his duties.
