About Us

Welcome to our site! Blithe & Bonny is a group of women (and men, of course, are definitely welcome!) that strive to promote lady-positivity, culture, entertainment, travel, current events, fashion, and books. We’re here for the marginalized “millennial” women who should get a little more credit. We’re talking about the Netflix watchers, the book readers, the stay-in-all-weekenders, the shy ones, the awkward ones, the loud ones, the ones who don’t need no man, the ones with the crazy opinions, and the ones who most definitely do not have their lives together. We hear you, sisters, and we’re ready to get your voices out there.

So take a seat. Drink some tea. Stay awhile.

Yours,
B&B Team

Alex Doria, Entertainment Editor
Alex is a North Carolina Bonny with a love for literature and storytelling. Growing up between bookshelves and mugs of coffee made her English Degree a no-brainer, and now she’s here to write about her favorite things: the stories that we take into our lives. When Alex doesn’t have a book in her hand (it’s usually in her purse), she’s watching the latest bingeworthy show on Netflix and feeding her addiction to BBC period dramas. 
Sydney Fromm
​Sydney Fromm is a high school English teacher in Las Vegas as well as an aspiring author. Her favorite pastimes include traveling, writing, reading, running, and painting. Sydney is very excited to be an Entertainment Writer for Blithe & Bonny and can't wait to hear from readers. Sydney is a Ravenclaw and a cat person. She loves vanilla ice cream and The X-Files, and is total Netflix junkie. Two of Sydney's favorite roommates are her cat Pippin and her roommate's dog Endor.
Jensen Argyle
Jensen lives in a tiny apartment in Rexburg, Idaho. She is a life-long lover and collector of books, a collection which is now bursting through the walls of said tiny apartment. Other than reading, Jensen enjoys Nora Ephron movies, rainy days, and raspberry hot chocolate (a necessity for living in Idaho.) You can contact her at jensenargyle@gmail.com or you can follow her on twitter @jensenargyle.
Courtney Willis
Courtney Willis is a Florida native and loves everything about it: the beach, Disney World, and the FSU Seminoles. She is also a world traveler, a history enthusiast, and an avid foodie. She is a BYU-Idaho graduate with a degree in Creative Writing, and currently resides in Utah. Her first book, a Regency romance entitled Perfect, is scheduled to be published in August 2016. Follow her tweets @courtneyawillis.
Danielle Gorman
Danielle studied English and Creative Writing in College and is now living the single life in Salt Lake City. A Texas girl by heart, she loves reading, writing, travel, and Mexican food. And Ireland. Don't ask her about Ireland (she won't shut up about it).

News

Rebecca Moore
Rebecca Moore believes that there is no subject too complex that can't be explained to the layperson. She believes in writing that is accessibly intelligent. Outer space holds her heart and her fearless ambition will likely get her there one day. ​
Sonia Billadeau
Sonia is a native from the Windy City, Chicago. No. Really. She lives right in the city and its architecture is breathtaking. Anyway, Sonia has only one younger sister Rebecca who is as bold and tangy as the taste of lemon. Whereas, Sonia is more like the taste of a watermelon. Sonia is married to a guy with a funny last name and he is the cutest, coolest, and the weirdest guy she has ever met. Sonia graduated in English with a minor in Visual Communications from BYU-Idaho. She is now a freelancing for the Rexburg newspaper. Sonia enjoys reading, writing, watching TV shows and superhero movies, and playing Just Dance.
​Gwyneth Allred
Gwyneth grew up believing she was not creative. She has a love of English that she refined by studying grammar, editing others’ papers, and writing her own. When given the chance, her creativity blossomed into something more incredible than anything she thought it could be. She is currently majoring in English Education and minoring in Communication Education at Weber State University in Ogden, Utah. In her spare time, Gwyneth writes Shakespearean sonnets and looks up recipes on Pinterest to test on her husband.
