Working with Sonder Books has been a genuinely positive experience. The team are thoughtful, supportive, and passionate about giving authors a platform to be heard. From start to finish, the process felt personal and encouraging, and I truly felt valued as a writer. It’s clear how much heart goes into everything they do, and it’s a wonderful home for stories that matter.

Sonder Books has been great to work with. They backed my writing early on, which meant a lot to me, and working with them has felt straightforward and, most important to me, stress-free. Communication is clear, they’re supportive and I genuinely feel they care about the stories they publish. I’ve always felt my work was taken seriously, and that really matters a lot to me as a writer. I’m really proud to be part of what they’re building and excited to see them grow.

Working with Sonder Books has been a dream come true. They have helped me to get my work published earlier than I would have done if I was working on my own. As an author at the start of her career, I have relished the opportunity to try out different genres, and find what suits me best.

I found out about Sonder from another writer and submitted a short story to the community project A Cornucopia of Curious Tales. It was exciting to be selected and I was thrilled to recognise several of the other authors on the project. Sonder was easy to work with and has provided a valuable outlet for the writing community.
