ScreenPlayas is coming back after a two-month hiatus, with fresh artwork and geek mythology for you all! In the meantime, this post will be different from the norm – I’ll take a break from pop-culture and talk about what I’ve been up to.
My name is Michael R Gonzalez, a pop-culture enthusiast and content writer who founded ScreenPlayas to pursue two of my passions: writing and entertainment news/facts.
But beyond pop-culture, my greatest ambition has been to use my writing skills to help people and contribute to my community – that’s why I’m excited to be part of YAYWORLD, where I’ve been writing the last couple of months.
So what am I talking about?
If you’re an aspiring filmmaker, singer/songwriter, poet, artist, or blogger/writer, it’s critical for you to start building an online presence. You need a portfolio showcasing your work, and more importantly, one that shows up in Google search results. YAYWORLD is free and invites all kinds of creatives to show their skills on any of its 440 websites.
Some of my geek mythology was featured on YAYWORLD.com where I talked about the origins of those adorable (and probably tasty) porgs in The Last Jedi. See that post here.
Make money doing what you love
Just like everybody else, local businesses need help getting found, and that’s something that can be done using content marketing. And for those of us who aspire to write or create art? Well, we wouldn’t mind earning a little money in the process either.
If you’re not familiar with content marketing, don’t be intimidated – by creating your profile on YAYWORLD and sharing your work and interests, you’ll be able to connect with business owners worldwide – businesses that can pay you to do what you do best – create content.
You can post about things that are important to you – things that you love and issues that you care about. Post videos, stories and images about the events, places, people and things that matter to you, in your own words. Have your say and earn money in the process. For an in-depth description of how to make money on YAYWORLD, see this post by writer Allyson Gottlieb.
I’ve been publishing on YAYWORLD for a couple of months now, and I can’t recommend it enough for all of you who would like to build your online presence and put your work out there. Feel free to browse my YAYWORLD profile here.
And now, as I put my ScreenPlayas cap back on, I’m excited to mention that there are some new fun-facts about your favorite shows and movies in the pipeline, along with some crafty new artwork. You’ll be seeing them soon!
Until next time, my fellow Screenplayas.
