Summary

Illumination is fostering a collaborative environment for writers to promote their work and engage with a broader community, emphasizing the benefits of cross-publication support and networking.

Abstract

The undefined website content outlines Illumination's initiative to encourage writers to promote their own publications within the Illumination platform. This initiative, announced by Dr. Mehmet Yildiz, is a departure from the competitive nature often seen in media, instead embracing a philosophy of sharing and collaboration. Illumination supports smaller publications and invites readers to engage with and follow these writers, highlighting the benefits of cross-pollination between publications. The website also provides submission guidelines and invites writers to join Illumination to increase the quality of their writing and achieve their goals. The concept of cross-pollination is presented as a way to create new synergies and opportunities for writers to grow and connect across various platforms.

Opinions

  • Dr. Mehmet Yildiz believes that collaboration, not competition, is key to enhancing diversity and benefiting the writing community in the long run.

Illumination Supports Writers in Their Own Space

This summer, Dr. Mehmet Yildiz announced a new initiative at Illumination where he invited our writers to introduce and promote their publications.

Now, this might seem counterproductive.

It’s like CNN inviting Fox News to advertise in their airspace. It’s assumed this would never occur as they are direct competitors with each other. But that’s not necessarily the case.

“The whole point of collaboration is that you give and take from each other, and that’s how you create things that are totally new.” Virgil Abloh

He maintains that our diversity is enhanced by sharing information within our community and we will all benefit in the long run.

I agree.

Most of our writers’ have small publications that will benefit from our encouragement. Illumination is committed to supporting these little guys and asks that you support them as well by following them and participating.
