Dear Reader,

I’m a new writer on Medium, and this is my first story.

However, I’ve been writing for a long time, mainly professional content. I aim to share my stories with like-minded readers and writers and learn from diverse experiences.

I’ve read many articles since I joined and enjoyed them very much. Some stories blew my mind, and some warmed my heart. Most of them gave me hope and inspired me to share my stories.

Those stories I read encouraged me to write my own stories in my own style, which is plain and straight. I prefer simple language to convey my messages.

This platform looks ideal for my needs. So, starting with my retirement, I plan to return to my working years and share some memories of my profession. However, the online world makes me nervous. I need to get used to it by writing and engaging consistently. It will take a while.

Fortunately, I found a new community that supports me. My gratitude to Dr Mehmet Yildiz, who encouraged me to join Medium and offered to be part of his publications.
