Caitlin K. Gemmell

I am a mother, a writer, a priestess, a graduate student, and a believer in all things magical. I maintain a close relationship with the animate world and follow the "Old Ways," but embrace aspects of contemporary Western culture as well. I help women discover the relationship between sense of place and personal mythology, delving into dream work, stories, imagery, and journaling.

✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend. It’s a quiet, serene day for me. I’m wrapped in a soft blanket, sipping tea, and writing about a magic forest. 🍁QOTD: what’s the most beautiful book you’ve read so far this year? I’d love some recommendations, especially for magical realism books. Beasts of Extraordinary Circumstance is definitely one of mine. . . p.s. I’m joining some photo challenges today. 👇🏻 . . #preptober #prep_toberchallenge #nanoprep Working title “Cranberry Lemonade in the Forbidden Forest.” #witchyreadsoctober I put a spell on you (Beasts of Extraordinary Circumstance). #booktober18 #allthebooksoct18 #spookathon #spookathonphotochallenge chapter 13.

We made a friend! 😄🍂✨🍂✨I know I haven’t been posting as often as usual. Homeschooling Harry takes up a lot of my time, and when I do have free time I’m usually writing. I’m working on a middle grade novel. The characters just wouldn’t leave me alone. Question for the writers out there: do your characters ever pester you until you record their stories? They usually nag me in my dreams! Seriously, most of my story ideas come to me as I’m dreaming. That’s partly why my Instagram handle is @caitsdreamscapes . . . Joining some challenges this month: #prep_toberchallenge Fuel: dreams, recording dreams. #booktober18 rainy weather reads: Betsy-Tacy books. #allthebooksoct18 Leaf ring by @petrune_ithacany #themagicofbookstagram

Scent has always provided a direct path to the soul, and no one who becomes immersed in it can fail to be pleasurably changed by the experience. —Mandy Aftel. 🦋 . . QOTD:Do you have a signature scent? 🥀✨🥂🌿🍊🍋I recently revisited a favorite book (Romancing the Ordinary) and loved the sections about the importance of scent. I wore the same perfume for years, but then I became aware of the dangers of wearing something containing petrochemicals (among other horrible things—hormone disruptors for one). It’s been a long journey for me to find a safe, mostly natural, cruelty free, sustainable perfume that I actually like. I tried blending my own using essential oils—and although I liked some of the blends, it just wasn’t the same as spritzing myself with a perfume in an elegant bottle. I’ve listed my new signature perfume in my latest blog post, and shared my top five favorite eco/natural perfume companies. Link in bio to read. Have a lovely, relaxing Sunday guys! 😘 . . . #themagicofbookstagram #idratherbereading

We are halfway through the week! Are you having a good week so far? My highlight this week has been signing up for a series of writing prompts, which will culminate in a short story. It’s just the structure I need at the moment. QOTD: Do you read women’s fiction? I read #thecast over the summer. It was a sweet story about true friends. My review has been up on Goodreads for awhile, if you are interested in reading my review. Thanks again to @getredpr and @lorijill321 for the #gifted copy. . . . . #ofquietmoments #autumncolourloving #imbringingsimpleback #creativehappylife #upandautumn #autumnvibes #authorgram #fortheloveofreading #bookstagramgirl #booksarelife #reading_time #wordboss #livetowrite #mostlyreading #readaholic #womensfiction #amyblumenfeld #bookfeaturepage #booksofig #domesticfiction #takeyourbookoutside
