This is me; Rosie Lewis, blogger, theatre maker, over-thinker, allergic to nuts, has a tendency to fall over. In all honesty, I quite like the woman I’ve become. She’s intelligent, creative, kind-hearted, and loyal. She’s a great cook, can sing you a nice song, and will offer to proofread your essays. The woman I’ve become … Continue reading Becoming the Woman I Want to Be | rosie abigail
My Winchester (Through A Lense) | rosie abigail
Winchester, Hampshire. Ye olde capital city of the United Kingdom. Home to the world's longest Medieval cathedral. Childhood city of Frank Turner and Colin Firth, and the resting place of Jane Austen. It also happens to be where I call home. Home, for me, begins in my flat. It's a light dappled sun trap in … Continue reading My Winchester (Through A Lense) | rosie abigail
Being Scared of Singing | rosie abigail
For someone who is a busker, a songwriter, arts company owner, and a theatre performer, I guess you wouldn't expect me to say I am scared of singing. But I am. Growing up, I used to sing a lot.

My family sold that house in Caldicot to move to Abergavenny for my mum’s job, where I gained a new, smaller room.

22 Things I’ve Learnt | rosie abigail
At the beginning of July, I turned 22 years old. Now, as we all know, young adults make the best decisions and are the font of all knowledge (please note the sarcasm in that, I am very aware that we are just stumbling blindly through this thing called ‘adult life’). In my 22 years of … Continue reading 22 Things I’ve Learnt | rosie abigail
“Just Get Over Your Asthma” | rosie abigail
Most people are very understanding of asthma, but I have been told certain things in passing, by friends, educators, and strangers alike - “Asthma is just coughing.” “Stop overreacting.” “You obviously don’t exercise enough.” “It’s not a real illness.” “Just get over it.” It’s November 8th, the cold has creeped in across the country. I’m … Continue reading “Just Get Over Your Asthma” | rosie abigail
