This is the "About Me" section and I'm the one who runs this site. My name is Roshen short for Roshenbow but you can also call me Jace.


To get things rolling, I never anticipated that I would develop an interest in HTML and CSS, let alone web design. Growing up, I never was a tech-savvy guy, and I had no interest in creating websites at all, but I've always been a creative type who needed an outlet to express my ideas.


This all began because I felt disillusioned with the direction of the modern internet and social media, and wanted to revert to a time when the internet wasn't so commercialized and lacked authenticity. I discovered SpaceHey as a result and found a space that shared the same sentiment as I did. I was given a taste of HTML and CSS, but I wanted to express myself further. A profile page can only convey so much, so I thought if I could do this on a smaller scale why not try creating a website?


The idea felt both daunting yet approachable after my experience learning bits and pieces of it on SpaceHey. It gave me enough confidence to at least try, and so I spent 2 weeks learning HTML. However, learning and practicing CSS was a whole different story of intense trial and error and mental turmoil. However, after months and months of practice, I have this site that bears the fruit of my labor. I have to give credit to SpaceHey for being the reason I developed this interest in the first place.


So who am I? I’m just a 23 year old guy with a love for physical media, analog tech, simple living, and a passion for hobbies and music I enjoy. Online I go by Jacethefool, but Roshenbow is only reserved for this site and SpaceHey. Also, that image of me was drawn in MS Paint! Mind you I'm not an artist.


Fun Fact: I really enjoy coming up with clever names. The name Roshenbow is a play on the word "roshambo" Roshen is the default name I use whenever I play any RPG.
