oh, hi :) i’m Sonja!
i’m a Canadian/American poet and author of two poetry collections: Where the Beetle Went for Lunch and mortal atlas. my third book will arrive in 2025 [!!]
velvet reverie is a portal for poetry and poetic prose exploring sensuality, memory, grief, and the infinite wonders of moss. this is a soft, myth-woven space for the seekers, the feral ones, and those fluent in dream-logic.
my work lives at the intersection of transcendentalism, mysticism, modern society, and the ache of existence. when not writing, you’ll find me haunting little-known corners of the globe — or curled beneath an old cedar tree in search of wild mushrooms.
here in velvet reverie, i etch bits of my soul into the internet ether, in hopes that something lands with you. ꩜⋆.°
what you’ll find here:
poems and poetic essays
audiobook & book sneak peeks
voice notes and podcast episodes
behind-the-scenes from my art & publishing life
tips on self-publishing for poets & indie authors
paid subscribers get full access to the archive and bonus content every 1–2 weeks. free subscribers still get occasional poems and updates, too :)
i’m so glad you’re here — tuck into a mossy grove & get cozy! <3
