Welcome to Ink-Stained Compass! My name is Caitlin Gemmell, and I am a published poet and a writer of magical stories and novels.
I am also the founder of #enchantedsimplicity on Instagram, which is a place for sharing content that has to do with finding the magic in the simple, everyday things.
Here on Substack, I share two newsletters per month for everyone and two for paid subscribers (so four per month). These newsletters include ideas for and reflections on living a magical life, updates about my writing (including mentioning when and where my poems are published), and (for my paid subscribers) excerpts from my personal journal and poems I haven’t shared anywhere else.
My newsletters are usually published on a Sunday, but once per month I uplift another creator on a Monday in what I call Muse Monday. You can read those posts here. And if you are a creator who’d like to be featured, send me an email at caitlingemmell@substack.com
