XP's history notebooking pages

Just uploaded XP's latest  notebooking pages on her blog.

First assignment in 2012

XP's first assignment in 2012,

I found the way she uses grammar is strange,

don't know if it's ok to use past tense and present tense this way.....

 but she said it feels right.

Read all three pages in this PDF.

Spartacus the Gladiator

note typing

XP used to write her notes out straight onto notebooking pages,

but lately the readings are longer and she needs to make short notes first

before writing them down.

To prevent all the erasing and re-writing,

she uses Notepad to help her jod down all the points

and later complete the sentences.

After that she arranges and adds pictures into her notes.

She uses either Photoshop or Indesign (previously called Pagemaker).
