Cusp of Cami is the showgirl’s boudoir, the temple of the inner goddess, the forbidden gallery of erotic art, the inner monologue stained pink and veiled by lace, the cacophony of images being orchestrated into their proper order, the fleeting sparkle of liminal and infinite possibility…

This may contain: a pink building with balconies and windows
this is where I write from.

  1. This Substack: a monthly newsletter by Camille Lagunera (me!) featuring

    fiction and nonfiction. Also, à la carte posts offering my thoughts on sex, pop culture, and astrology. Esoteric girl that I am, I’ll also be including witchy things like new or full moon rituals and musings on current astrology. Not to forget– the Camicore weekly roundup aka random, cool shit I find on the internet, media recommendations.

A cusp is a portal that welcomes new beginnings and ends. When we find ourselves in this liminal place, unsure of where to look next, we look for patterns in the culture. Cusp of Cami is a practice of identifying these patterns, and stepping into a space of unease, groundlessness, transgression, and magic.
