I had not originally thought about that. Basically, because these are personal recommendations. On the other hand, I believe the main purpose is to foster wider viewing of great pieces on Medium. If you don't mind, I'd like to experiment with this a bit. Obviously, I haven't set any submission guidelines yet, though they would be similar to those on my publication: This Unexplained Life. https://medium.com/this-unexplained-life/submission-guidelines-5592459315f1

(Of course things like length don't apply.) Mostly, on my publications I like to keep a continuity of format. In this case, the main image and the short introduction as to why the piece was shared. In the case of an outside submission, I might do a bit of editing - to keep the image similar and such. If you are comfortable with that, we ought to give it a go. I would prefer you leave the piece in draft form (I presume you know how to submit it as such. If not, I can guide you through that.) But, I will go ahead and add you as a writer so you CAN submit. And I'm really sorry to go on so long, but like I said, this is a bit experimental for me too. If it works out, I would love to open the publication to other writers. So thank you for your interest!!!!
