L. Ron Hubbard Writers and Illustrators of the Future Podcast began in April 2019 and begins its 6th year. #WritersoftheFuture #Podcast #WOTFPodcast

A culture is as rich and as capable of surviving as it has imaginative artists. The artist is looked upon to start things. The artist injects the spirit of life into a culture.”
— L. Ron Hubbard, Writers of the Future founder
LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, May 13, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The Writers of the FuturePodcast was initiated on April 18, 2019, and has now entered its 6th year of operation with over 315 weekly episodes featuring many of today’s publishing industry leaders, bestselling authors, and renowned artists of science fiction and fantasy, as well as up-and-coming creative voices breaking into the publishing market. The podcast is based on the world-famous Writers and Illustrators of the Future Contests created by L. Ron Hubbard in 1983, when he wrote, “A culture is as rich and as capable of surviving as it has imaginative artists. The artist is looked upon to start things. The artist injects the spirit of life into a culture.”

Podcasting has become a primary source of news, entertainment, and education. While there are an estimated 4.5 million registered podcasts worldwide, Podcastpage.io notes that there are only about 700K active podcasters. Out of these that are active, the average podcast listens vary between 100 and 150 per episode. If a podcast achieves 500 downloads per episode, it is likely in the top 5-10% of all podcasts.

“I am very fortunate to have had the Writers of the Future Podcast syndicated a few years ago on the United Public Radio Network,” stated the podcast host John Goodwin. “Each episode is created with the exact purpose stated by Mr. Hubbard of injecting that spirit of life into a culture,” Goodwin continued.

Weekly shows routinely exceed two million listens, with this week’s episode #327 [on.soundcloud.com/LobmeUjeVLcfht2T9] featuring Jonathan Merkh, President and Publisher of Forefront Books, breaking 2.3 million.

The Writers and Illustrators of the Future Podcast is a seven-time finalist in the People’s Choice Podcast Awards and winner in the eLit Awards. When asked to what he owed the podcast’s success, Goodwin stated, “I do an immense amount of homework in preparation for a show. If it’s an author, I read at least one full book. For any guest, I first attempt to learn as much as possible about them and then coordinate questions we will discuss in advance.” Goodwin concluded, “Ultimately, I have stayed true to the purpose of Writers of the Future, and this is my greatest source of success.”

The Writers of the Future Podcast is hosted on Soundcloud.com and can also be found on Apple, Audible, iHeart, Overcast, Podbean, Podnews, and Spotify Podcasts.

L. Ron Hubbard created the Contest in 1983, writing in the Introduction to Writers of the Future Volume 1, “It is with this in mind that I initiated a means for new and budding writers to have a chance for their creative efforts to be seen and acknowledged.”

Based on the Writing Contest’s success, its sister Contest, Illustrators of the Future, was created five years later to provide aspiring artists with the same opportunity.

The success of the Contest is measured by the success of its winning authors and illustrators.

The intensive mentoring process has proven very successful. The 571 winners and published finalists of the Writing Contest have published over 8,000 novels and short stories, and their works have sold over 60 million copies.

The 418 past winners of the Illustrating Contest have created art for over 700 books, 500 comics, and 130 major motion pictures, gaming feature films, television shows, and documentaries.

Brown's unwavering commitment to caregiving, mental health advocacy and uplifting Black women's narratives exemplifies the spirit of this celebration. Over the past decade, Brown has been a dedicated caregiver to her father, who was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. Her personal journey through the challenges of caregiving led her to become a vocal advocate for others in similar roles. Recognizing the need for support and community, she launched the podcast Squeezed in partnership with Lemonada Media and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. This seven-part series delves into the complexities of caregiving across America, spotlighting the daily experiences of caregivers and emphasizing the importance of self-care and support systems.Beyond her advocacy in caregiving, Brown uses her platform to address mental health and wellbeing within the Black community. Her storytelling fosters a deeper understanding of the unique challenges faced by Black women and highlights the importance of representation. Brown's contributions have not gone unnoticed. She was recently celebrated at the 2025 ESSENCE Black Women in Hollywood Awards, acknowledging her influence and dedication to uplifting Black voices in the entertainment industry. “Yvette Nicole Brown embodies the essence of a woman who dares. Her dedication to caregiving, her candid discussions about mental health, and her commitment to telling authentic Black stories make her a beacon of hope and strength. We are incredibly honored to recognize her contributions and celebrate her at Women Who Dared,” said Sonya Young Aadam, CEO of California Black Women’s Health Project. "To be honored by the California Black Women’s Health Project at the Women Who Dared celebration is deeply humbling. This moment belongs to more than just me—it’s for every Black woman who dares to care, who shows up for her family, her community and herself—even when the world overlooks and undervalues her contributions. Through our light, our stories, our advocacy and our love, we create change. This honor is a reminder that care is powerful, and what we carry—seen or unseen—deserves reverence and recognition," said Yvette Nicole Brown.Yvette Nicole Brown is one of four incredible honorees being highlighted at Women Who Dared 2025.

Infrastruktura

Senat zajmie się ustawą o jawności cen lokali na sprzedaż. W praktyce ustawa obejmie tylko 12 proc. rynku

Ustawa o jawności cen miała na celu ułatwić klientowi szybkie sprawdzenie aktualnych cen mieszkań i lepsze zrozumienie oferty dewelopera. Przedstawiciele branży mówią wprost: idea ustawy jest słuszna, jednak kształt, jaki przybrała w praktyce, podobnie jak tryb jej uchwalenia, budzi już niepokój. Błyskawiczny tryb procedowania sprawił, że powstała ustawa, która obejmie 12,4 proc. rynku. Zdaniem Polskiego Związku Firm Deweloperskich ostatnią deską ratunku, by poprawić ten akt, jest Senat, który zajmie się nim już podczas wtorkowego posiedzenia komisji infrastruktury.

Handel

Dzięki sztucznej inteligencji przesyłki mogą trafiać do klientów tego samego dnia. Liczba takich dostaw w Amazon znacząco rośnie

Prognozy rynkowe wskazują, że wart ok. 10 mld dol. globalny rynek dostaw realizowanych jednego dnia będzie w kolejnych latach dynamicznie rosnąć. Wpływają na to przede wszystkim oczekiwania konsumentów co do szybkich i terminowych doręczeń. Zarówno firmy kurierskie, jak i sklepy internetowe coraz mocniej inwestują w ten trend. W Amazon opcja Same-Day Delivery jest już możliwa w 135 lokalizacjach w Europie, a w tym roku przybędzie 20 kolejnych. W I kwartale br. Amazon dostarczył w tym trybie o 80 proc. paczek więcej niż przed rokiem. Głównie były to produkty z kategorii niezbędnych przedmiotów codziennego użytku.
