2023 notebook and planner lineup.

Jan 09, 2023 | Sonya Cheney

I can’t quite decide if I’m proud of myself for only having four books to work through 2023 or if I really set myself up for disaster trying to work with so many. But they all have different purposes, I promise! Even if some of them have overlapping entries, i.e. goal breakdowns for the year….

Jan 14, 2021 | Sonya Cheney

I’m sitting here at my kitchen peninsula (my new writing space for #momlife reasons) as I type, Finn upstairs napping, laundry running in the washing machine, dishes in the dishwasher, and dinner prep going in the oven. I stared at the blank screen of Scrivener to work on a new scene for my novel but…

nanowrimo 2020 | surivival kit + rewards

Oct 15, 2020 | Sonya Cheney

preptober + nanowrimo 2020.

Oct 01, 2020 | Sonya Cheney

October 1. Preptober is here and that means we are now on a thirty-one-day countdown to NaNoWriMo 2020. If you were someone thinking, “Quarantine will give me all the time I need to write a novel,” only to…not do it, allow me to recommend the mind numbing race to fifty-thousand words that is National Novel…

who do i write for?

Jul 02, 2020 | Sonya Cheney

I’ll write for myself, whether anyone else reads it or not. But then—if I write something, then choose to submit it, or write something and choose to publish it, does that negate my declaration to write only for myself? Does writing for myself mean hiding it away in my hard drive forever? I mean, probably…

Hello there!
I’m Sonya! I like horror movies, knitting, and witchcraft.

A moment please for this gorgeous LOTR yarn from @ A moment please for this gorgeous LOTR yarn from @longdogyarn. I really had to reign myself in for this collection, so it was so, so hard to choose just one color for a project, but the way I said, "Ohhhhhhhh!" and could feel myself light up after opening the package means I made the perfect choice. (And I'm just such a sucker for anything inspired by Eowyn's "I am no man!")
