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.

“Sometimes a moment is so remarkable that it carves out a space in time and spins there, while the world rushes on around it.” —Laini Taylor, Strange the Dreamer. 🦋My #wip keeps tugging on my heartstrings, returning me to people and places I have left behind without really wanting to. It’s funny how something so deeply buried comes rushing to the surface as I write, or dream. Last night I dreamt of snow covered ground; crisp, sharp as glass air; Magic was everywhere. It was disorienting to awaken to muggy, oppressive summertime instead. Certain symbols won’t leave me alone—white butterflies, the scent of gorse blossoms, the sea air, chocolate scented flowers, hedgehogs, ponies, a white doe. QOTD: which symbols are deeply woven into your heart? . . . . #caitsdreamscapes #quoteoftheday #strangethedreamer #lainitaylor #mybeigelife #agameoftomes #amwriting #writerslife #spilledink #myeverydaymagic #thesincereststoryteller #calmversation #feelfreefeed #womenwhowrite #pentopaper #writingcommunity #bookstagrammer #bookowl #amwritingfiction #amediting #debutnovel #readersofinsta #bookishfeed #bookcommunity #mymonthofwords #myquietbeauty

I’m back! At least I think I am. My social media break helped me to tune in to the world around me again. I spent time in nature (such as this gorgeous field at my favorite nature preserve), saw two of my closest friends, and wrote my book into existence. I might not post consistently for awhile as I need time away to indulge my hermit self as I finish editing my other book. I will post from time to time as I have started a book club with @jasperappler @theswash.buckler @bits_faerietales and @athelienne ! Our @faes.of.the.forest book club begins next month. You can head over to that Instagram page to find out more, or contact any of us for information. QOTD: have you seen patterns from fairytales emerge in your own life and how you relate to the world? . . . . #caitsdreamscapes #bookstagram #stepoutforsummer #booksoutofdoors #takeyourbookoutdoors #booknymph #writerofinstagram #womenwhowrite #amwriting #writerslife #agameoftomes #postitfortheaesthetic #idratherbeinnature #idratherbereading #whimsicalwonderfulwild #thewildernesstonic #mycountrysidetonic #mybookishlife #faesoftheforest #booksofinsta #enjoyreading #becauseofreading #culturetripbooks #bookstagramfeature

A quote from one of my favorite authors. Her magical realism books are amongst my favorites. Dreams are my biggest inspiration as far as my writing goes as well. . . . #writerslife #writerofinstagram #creativemuse #quoteoftheday #joanneharris #joanneharrisquote #caitsdreamscapes #bookstagram #socialmediabreak #themedivider

I’m taking a bit of a social media break to focus on my book. I will check in from time to time but won’t post until my inspiration returns. I seem to be experiencing a creative lull and need to spend time in nature in order for my muse to find me once more. 🙏♥️✨🌿 . . . #quoteoftheday #thesecretgarden #franceshodgsonburnett #bookstagram #writerofinstagram #themedivider #takingabreakfromsocialmedia

How are you, friends? 🌿✨QOTD:Name one good thing about today. 😊Happy publication day to Somebody’s Daughter by David Bell @davidbellnovels Thank you @berkleypub and @getredpr #partner for the free book. ***********************************Synopsis: When Michael Frazier’s ex-wife, Erica, unexpectedly shows up on his doorstep in a frenzy, she drops a bombshell that threatens to rip everything in his life apart: her ten-year-old daughter Felicity is missing—and Michael is the father. Unsure whether this is the truth but unable to stand by and do nothing, Michael follows the elusive trail of a child he has always wanted but never knew he had. . . After Michael departs, his wife, Angela, learns shocking news about Erica and fears for the safety of both her husband and the endangered girl. When a stranger, a man who claims a connection to Erica and her missing daughter, knocks on the door, Angela is drawn out into the night—and deep into the tangled web of Michael’s past. . . Told over the course of one night, lies that span a decade come bubbling to the surface, putting Michael and his entire family in jeopardy. And as the window for Felicity’s safe return closes, Michael will have to decide who can be trusted and who is hiding the truth. . . . #somebodysdaughter #davidbell #suspense #thriller #summerreads #bookstagram #bookstagramfeature #bookfeaturepage #culturetripbooks #bookishfeatures #booksinnature #stepoutforsummer #takeyourbookoutdoors #booksandbeans #lattekindofday #mybeigelife #agameoftones #agameoftomes #calmversation #readersofinsta #booktography #vscobooks #mygratitudejournal
