About Sophia
Sophia is the author of three stand-alone twisty and dark psychological thrillers. She’s a Londoner of proud Italian and Greek-Cypriot heritage with working-class roots. Growing up on a council estate in central London for the first twelve years of her life, she later went on to study film. She worked in TV and post-production, but in her forties, decided to turn her attention to her true passion: writing.
In 2019 she graduated from Faber Academy’s Writing A Novel course and in 2020 she was accepted onto the inaugural Madeleine Milburn Mentorship scheme where she was signed by the agency.
Her love of thrillers started from when she was a teen, watching Hitchcock and reading Daphne du Maurier. Her obsession spiralled into a love of all things Gothic, Horror and the Macabre, which the reader will pick up in her own tales.
She currently lives in North London with her family, two cats and dog named Ripley.
Books are a uniquely portable magic. Stephen King.
