Medium has recently changed the way users can submit their stories to its publications. In light of the overwhelming response to The Cauldron, here is a guide to ensuring that your work is seen by our editors.

Step One: Create your account at Medium.com by logging in with your Twitter or Facebook credentials:

Step Two: All potential contributors must be added as “Writers” in advance of submitting drafts to The Cauldron. This can only be accomplished by contacting us mediumcauldron at gmail.com:

Step Three: When you have been conditionally added as a Writer, you will receive a notification by email, and you may then begin drafting your stories on the Medium platform under your own username.

Step Four: Draft your story!

Yes, the writing experience at Medium is as good or better than advertised. Once you use the platform, you will not want to write anywhere else. (Don’t worry about formatting or adding images, we will handle all of that.) Upon completion of your draft, you will be able to submit your pieces directly to The Cauldron for consideration.

When you’re done, simply click the “Add to publication” drop-down shown below (DO NOT self-publish, just send us your draft):

Step Five: You are (almost) now a writer! Sit back, relax and enjoy the fame, fortune and fine members of the opposite (or same) sex surely headed your way.
