Welcome to the first Rumination,
a newsletter dedicated to exploring my identity as a writer, the beauty of art and literature, and the evolving state of what it means to be an individual pursuing the arts in our modern world.
First of all, thank YOU for taking the time to subscribe to my newsletter – it truly makes my heart swell with gratitude. We’ve grown into such a beautiful community on Instagram, but I wanted to find a better way to deepen the connection we’ve created as readers, writers, and artists. After some time and contemplation, I’ve settled on Substack!
Ruminations will become the most personal form of letter writing I have attempted to date which is as exhilarating as it is petrifying. Nevertheless, I am SO excited to share it with you. I feel this has been a long time coming, so I am glad to finally be sitting here, writing this letter, and making it happen.
What can I expect?
As a member of this newsletter, you will be the first to hear about upcoming books, projects, events, musings, life updates, and more. I want my latest news to go straight to the people who support me most. Substack has some very exciting features that will allow us to interact directly, including comment sections and our own personal chat. For the first few months, Ruminations will be free for everyone to read, but in the future, the most secretive of writing projects will be for paying subscribers only ;)
If you have a particular topic you would like me to delve into, or have things you’d love to know about me/my writing, leave a comment or reply to the chat thread appearing in your mailbox shortly!

THANK YOU
The support you all afford me gives me the motivation to pursue this crazy little dream I have. Whether you’ve been a long-time follower, have a copy of Worm Food and Bone Sand on your shelf, or have been quietly supporting from the sidelines, thank you.
I can’t wait to watch this vision unfurl!
Yours ephemerally,
C.Ellis
