Every indie author knows the mix of thrills and challenges that comes with building a writing career. We wear all the hats — writer, editor, marketer, designer, publisher — sometimes all before our morning coffee. It’s a wild, exhausting, wonderful ride.

And every so often, a milestone appears on the path that reminds you why you keep going. For me, that moment is now: I’m beyond excited to share that I’m officially working with Harkness Publishing, who will be showcasing my books!

Why This Matters

For readers, this means my stories — from curvy, swoon-worthy romances to soulful witchcraft and seasonal guides — now have a professional showcase in a catalogue designed to reach more people, in more places, for a lower price!

Sure, you’ll still be able to find them on Amazon… but Harkness Publishing now allows me to offer them to loyal readers for a much lower price (I am SO thrilled!)

For me, as an indie author, it also means something even bigger: partnership.

When you’re self-published, you often feel like you’re shouting into the void. Having your books aligned with a press that believes in your work gives them another platform, another audience, and yes, another layer of credibility. It’s not about “losing” indie control (I still keep all the freedom I love) — it’s about opening more doors.

For My Fellow Indie Authors

If you’re reading this as a writer, here’s what I want you to take away:

📚 Partnerships don’t have to mean giving up independence. For me, Harkness isn’t about handing over the keys to my career — it’s about adding another shelf for my books to live on. This is the first time I have encountered a publishing house that allows me full control, and just supports me in my chosen path! Essentially they let me be an indie author…with an extra helping hand!

💜 Visibility matters. Sometimes it takes more than our own voices to get stories in front of new readers. A partnership like this amplifies what we’ve already built.

🌙 Milestones are proof of persistence. This didn’t happen overnight. It came after years of writing, publishing, and showing up even when sales were slow or the journey felt endless. If you’re in that place right now — keep going.

So, What’s Next?

You can now find my titles in the Harkness Publishing personal catalogue (take a peek here ). It feels surreal to see my work presented alongside other incredible books, and I couldn’t be prouder of this step.

For my readers, it means even easier access to the stories you love. For me, it’s a reminder that indie publishing isn’t about walking alone — it’s about building bridges.

And for my fellow indie authors? It’s a little spark of proof that your books, too, can find new homes and new readers in unexpected places.

Thank you for reading, thank you for being here, and thank you for letting me share this moment with you. Here’s to the next chapter — for all of us.

With excitement and gratitude,
Sonia ✨
