It’s been a while since I shared poetry from my private journal, so as August winds down, I thought my last Substack newsletter of the month should include a few of my newest poems. It’s always difficult for me to share my raw, unedited poems, so this newsletter is for paid subscribers only. As always, I welcome your thoughts.
One way of getting to view my posts that are ordinarily just for paid subscribers is to take advantage of Substack’s referrals program. You simply have to share my posts (you can click on the button below), or head to the Leaderboard page to get the link to share with your friends. If you get three friends to subscribe to my newsletter, you get one month of paid content free.
Next month, I have a lot of exciting content planned, including news of a recent publication! September is one of my favorite months here in upstate New York, and I look forward to weaving more magic to share with you.
Muse Monday will resume next month as well. I’m working with a few amazing, creative souls to bring you Muse Monday articles through the rest of the year and into next year. If you are a creator and interested in being interviewed about your creative process and inspirations, or guest posting for Muse Monday, send me an email at caitgemmell@gmail.com.
Last thing, before I share my poems, if you are interested in receiving regular, handwritten letters from me you can read about my newest offering letters from a selkie witch here.
