Lazy GM Note Taking With Notion and Obsidian

Wed, 12 Apr 2023 12:36:50 +0200

How does Mike Shea (Sly Flourish) do lazy GM note taking with Notion? Mike shows me how he uses Notion to prep and run games, and I’m taking the opportunity to show him some of how I do the same in Obsidian. Mike is the author of several RPG-related books, including the Return of the Lazy Dungeon Master and his latest, The Lazy DM’s Companion. Mike has been playing RPGs for almost 40 years and is a forever DM. He also has a YouTube channel where he releases two videos weekly: one about news in the RPG community and one where he preps live for one of his games.

Notion and Obsidian are similar in many ways, but they have a fundamental difference in philosophy and the way they structure notes. In this video, I talk about structure as well as Notion databases vs. Obsidian’s Dataview plugin, and tell you why I ultimately ended up with Obsidian.

Creating a Content Calendar in Obsidian

Despite the fact that I’ve long given up using Notion as my main note-taking tool, I’ve still continued to use it as a content calendar. Obsidian just hadn’t caught up with it in terms of functionality… until now.

In this video, I show my current Obsidian workflow for creating and maintaining a content calendar.
