Digital Notebooks
So my note taking is very…not tidy. It has a very distinct..let’s call it an ‘aesthetic’ – handwritten and handmade are very much how I work – but you CAN teach an old dog new tricks, and I can definitely see a pro in being able to collage together and organise my notes for a […]
My learning journey on 23Things commences
The idea of blogging is not something that sits comfortably with me. I think my issues with it are; why does anyone care what I have to say about this or that? Why does everyone feel like they have to have an opinion on something? I’m not a regular rea…
My Heart Belongs to Podcasts
Hi, my name is Roslyn and I am a podcastaholic. Like, I am seriously considering getting one of my favorites represented in a future tattoo. I am in one too, as a voice (are you surprised? no. What if I told you it was a Queer urban fantasy? Still no? I’m not exactly a lady […]
Digital Curation
I must admit – I am a Pinterest addict. Being a visual person, the image-focused digital curation platform is ideal – along with folders. I like folders, and folders in folders. I have a LOT of projects and saving information on a wig commission or puppet in the same place as ideas for re-organising my […]
Thing 7 – Twitter

Openly Educating Myself
Well of COURSE I am going to link to this Open Educational Resource. Folklore is my jam, and these tragic incidents are a part of folklore and history. I always wonder what the stories of the accused were; midwifes, political adversaries, someone who just looked at you the wrong way. I consume a lot of […]
Don’t Copy Me….but do!
The assignment for this one isn’t applicable to me – so let me just tell you some of my love for Creative Commons, and slip in two CC pieces of media while I do. I love the Creative Commons licencing. As a mixed media artist, as well as a storyteller and folk-enthusiast, I see a […]
