Digitally Reborn – (2) ABS-CBN Brings Palatable Food & Agriculture To The Cities

Urban Gardens Magazines. Plural!

My 2ndproposal for ABS-CBN to resuscitate itself. Publish digital gardening magazines for the cities. Different magazines for fruits, flowers, ornamentals, trees, vegetables. All digital. Chic but cheap. Print on demand.

Above, on a US magazine, the main image says “Grow your own food[1]” (from LookBookReport). As caption to the inset image, Anna Bueno of CNN Philippines asks, “Can urban gardening flourish in Manila?” My answer: “Manilans must learn good urban gardening.” Easily digitally. I have already suggested Turning Agriculture into Digital – see “Digitally Reborn – (1) ABS-CBN Brings Digestible Science To The Farms & Homes[2]” (17 July 2020, THiNK Journalism, Digital).

I’m speaking from verifiable experience, and I alone can make the claim you can read as tagline to my blog Creative Thinkering:

World's creative genius online,
most prolific writer of non-fiction.
Frank A Hilario, Guru

That blog alone contains 1K plus essays of a minimum 1,000 words each, different topics.

What can ABS-CBN do now digitally? I recommend for it to create a digital company of bloggers, to which I will be willingly The Blogfather.

The Write Company of ABS-CBN.

All-digital, yes. Some 57 blog-magazines would be easy given the number of garden crops to work with, native and exotic. All digital – print editions at the expense of those who contract The Write Company.

How will ABS-CBN check me out when nobody knows me? Easy! Google for these blogs of mine:

THiNK Journalism, Digital, blogspot.com (reeducating Filipino journalists away from negative towards true, helpful, inspiring, necessary & kind, or THiNK Stories – a revolutionary idea)

A Magazine Called Love, blogspot.com (a rich hodgepodge of essays)
Creative Thinkering
, blogspot.com (all about creative thinking & writing)
Pinoy Cinderella,
blogspot.com (all about Charice Pempengco)
ICRISAT watch,
blogspot.com

The last one is all about the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics, ICRISAT, which was/is based in India. ABS-CBN can ask Secretary of Agriculture William Dar who was Director General of ICRISAT when he hired me as international consulting writer, work from home, WFH, blogging from 2000 to 2014.

All in all, I have written and blogged some 6 million words or 6,000 articles/essays, each article a proper essay and not simply hodgepodge of paragraphs thrown in. So I should know whereof I write. About the art and science mostly of Agriculture and Creative Thinking/Writing.

For The Write Company, I will manage for ABS-CBN as Editor In Chief & Publisher. As Editor In Chief I will serve, when necessary, as Author’s Editor, to actively help a writer become the best writer s/he can be – from creative thinking to creative writing.

An agriculturist and a writer, I am volunteering to be to mentor the young staff from gathering background materials to desktop publishing. All digital. All WFH.

Naturally, The Write Company can also produce for ABS-CBN a digital magazine to serve its corporate purposes. Not to mention that any company can hire us to produce the corporate magazine the hiring company managers think they need.

Welcome ABS-CBN Online – at your service!@517
