The Notebook Tapes is a daily audio journal and creative experiment blending Hobonichi journaling, French language learning, and poetic reflection. Recorded alongside the pages of a Hobonichi Techo Cousin, each episode explores presence, routine, longing, and imagination—part diary, part art practice, part unfolding conversation.

Kellie Raines
Kellie Raines is a storyteller who listens for what gathers at the edges—words, people, memories, warnings, wonders. She creates audio worlds where curiosity leads, voices linger, and meaning accumulates slowly and with care.
She is the creator and host of A Gather of Gatherings, a podcast rooted in collective nouns, language, nature, and the human impulse to name what we notice. Through poetic reflection, fictional encounters, expert interviews, and sound-rich storytelling, the show invites listeners to pause, look closer, and consider how language shapes the way we move through the world.
Kellie is also the co-producer and co-host of the Diamond Defense Podcast, where personal stories meet practical self-defense education. Grounded, compassionate, and unflinching, the series explores awareness, intuition, and lived experience—especially through the lens of women’s safety and agency.
Across her work, Kellie blends her background in theatre, visual art, and public media with a deep love of sound, texture, and story. Whether she’s gathering voices, echoes, or moments that might otherwise pass unnoticed, her work asks one central question: What happens when we truly pay attention?
