Hello there ❧

You’ve stumbled upon the virtual holding place for writer & poet Caitlin Ellis’ newsletter/open journal/community hub. So nice to see you here! This is a newsletter dedicated to exploring creative identity, the beauty of art and literature, and the evolving state of what it means to be an individual pursuing a creative career in our modern world. In short,

Ruminations is the culmination of far too much brooding and a fervent love of the literary arts.

Things one can expect from this publication include:

  • monthly newsletters with personal updates & recommendations

  • musings on writing, literature, language, and identity

  • book reviews

  • exclusive author updates, and

  • poetry, of course

All delivered directly to your mailbox with my love & a touch of existential dread.


Ruminations is free to read!

Ruminations is free for everyone to read, however, future writing projects and behind-the-scenes content will be available for paying subscribers xx
