Yay! I won an award last night. One of my stories was judged the best piece of comedy writing in the National Association of Writers and Groups' annual writing competition. And a couple of other stories were runners-up in the Short Story and Crime Fiction categories.

Hi #WritingCommunity I'm not brand new here but I'm Sophie and I'm an English teacher who writes literary female-led thrillers. My second book (in my hands) is published by VERVE Books.

I loved recording this episode with Alex Chua from The Book Bar - I think my laugh at the beginning gives it away - we talked about the importance of bookshops and creating community for readers and writers to come together. It was a very special episode ❤️

A new essay coming soon on #maugham in Southeast Asia. I will examine what he wrote about that prompted a call to ban his stories in the Straits from the Governor’s wife. #wsomsersetmaugham #backlash #bannedbooks #singapore #straits #essay
