About
Open Wellbeing Blog is written and maintained by Robbie Smith.
Hello. As a person who has spent many years learning to manage my mental health, I am interested in discussing wellbeing, politics and new economics. I am also a creative writer and computer programmer and am interested in open source software. In fact that was how the name came about. I believe the free open source software community is leading the way in showing what can be achieved by collaboration and the desire to put craft ahead of profit. This method of working can improve our wellbeing rather than the alienating for profit method that is the norm.
