Welcome to the world of this 'Crazy Mother.' Yes, I proudly consider myself a "Crazy Mother" on a mission to promote acceptance for children with disabilities and to show how fiction writing can influence and inspire that acceptance. While I mostly see myself as a fiction author, my autobiography, "The Crazy Mother's Guide To Raising Exceptional Children," is my first and only attempt at nonfiction. Encouraged by my children's therapists, I wanted to share my unconventional parenting techniques for handling serious teenage issues. I hope you, as a reader, gain insight from exploring my author's page into the mind of this Christian writer as I navigate the complex and often challenging landscape of raising children with disabilities and facing their unique daily struggles.Â
đź’Ą Meet Sonia D. Hebdon – Faith-Filled, Fierce, and Full of 80s Magic đź’ĄÂ
Sonia holds a degree in Liberal Studies, with concentrations in Communications and English Literature from UWS, Sydney. Initially trained as a journalist, she later earned a degree in Secondary Education Teaching. Throughout her journey, Sonia became aware of the educational challenges faced by students with disabilities. As a proud mother of two teenagers with Autism Spectrum Disorder, she considers herself an Australian writer dedicated to serving individuals with disabilities. Many authors overlook the fact that children with disabilities often require books in larger sizes and fonts to process written information more effectively. To promote "inclusivity," Sonia creates all her works with larger fonts and a typical trim size of 6 x 9 inches to accommodate kids of all abilities, including those with special needs.
Her latest series, "Sincerely Yours... Written In The Stars And Inked In Destiny!", explores themes of teenage identity, individuality, and embracing differences. Sonia exclusively writes clean fiction and faith-based works, ensuring parents can trust that their children engage with quality literary material. What if the words you wrote could change reality? In Sincerely Yours… Written In The Stars And Inked In Destiny!, Sonia D. Hebdon takes readers on a heart-pounding journey back in time to 1989 Haven Cove, where a rebellious teen’s anonymous advice column begins to influence the world around her—unleashing mysterious forces, unexpected romance, and a truth that can’t stay hidden.
Filled with supernatural suspense, slow-burn romance, and original 80s-inspired songs, this YA paranormal mystery is also rooted in faith-driven themes of identity, purpose, and divine destiny. Think Stranger Things meets To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before—but with a spiritual edge that uplifts as much as it excites. Sonia is a proud Christian author, a neurodivergent advocate, and the mom behind The Crazy Mother’s Guide to Raising Exceptional Children—a raw and hilarious parenting memoir for families raising ASD, ADHD, or uniquely wired kids. Her 'I Am Perfect the Way I Am' series encourages children to see their differences as God-given strengths, featuring lovable characters like Vlad McCoy and Ruby Ray. If you crave fiction that’s bold, clean, faith-based, and impossible to put down, Sonia D. Hebdon is your next must-read author. 👉 Follow for exclusive music, behind-the-scenes extras, and updates on Sonia’s inspiring new series.
