how to get out of a reading slump

Welcome! My name is Sonia and I’m so grateful you’re here!


Hi there, I’m Sonia – creator and editor of Brewing Writer.

I am a reader, content writer and COFFEE LOVER! ☺️☕️

I hope to share with you everything book related – book reviews, book recommendation lists and life-changing quotes to keep in mind.

I promise I won’t take much of your time! Please keep reading to know WHY I started this blog. 🙂

My Background

I knew early on when I was 16 (2013), that I loved reading and writing and like most people, who love to read and write – I wanted to become a writer.

I was one of the top ten young journalists in my home country’s local young adult issue in 2013 and 2014.

However, I proceeded to do my degree in Economics and minored in Psychology because they were subjects I were interested in.

I never really wanted to proceed in those fields career wise but I studied it anyway.

I never thought I could become a writer.. until I started freelance writing and my life completely took a turn.

The Big Leap

As the world went into lockdown in 2020, I graduated and was unemployed for many months.

So what did I do with all my free time?

With this I realised, may it be book reviews or a skill in demand – it is important to share the knowledge we know with others.

I know how difficult it was to transform my freelance writing side hustle to become a full-time writer and SEO strategist for Lazada Group, an international e-commerce company.

And that is why I started this blog – Brewing Writer

A safe space to learn more about everything bookish, writing and digital marketing.

The Present

Currently, I am a full-time book blogger and freelance writer.

I get to read books whenever I like, write about them and sustain a living from it.

I hope to bring you:
