The Read. Write. Play. blog was born out of an insatiable curiosity for the intersection of publishing, filmmaking and other media.

I’m Rochele Rosa, I have an MBA in marketing and am currently getting an MA in Multimedia Franchising. So, it’s no surprise that I’m a multi-passionate creative professional: author, filmmaker, public speaker and more.

Here, I share my insights into the publishing, filmmaking and game industry as well as the business of intellectual property that reinforces them all.
