Sophie (she/her)
Sophie, also known under her shitpost handle @_soapytea, is a queer creator obsessed with storytelling.
Once upon a time, Sophie was a bright and hopeful cognitive science researcher, with prestigious publications in both Science and Nature. However, when The Great Incident of 2020™ happened, she decided to ditch her life of security and comfort to embrace the unknown and pursue her true passion: poverty.
By becoming an independent author and digital artist, she’s made her dream come true in record time, with a bank account constantly on life support.
Her debut novel, Osea (2024), is a dark fantasy full of love, trauma, and vengeance. Her second, Decadence (2025), is a queer literary spiral into shame, indulgence, and, well, lesbians. Her latest project, black&white (2025), is a serialized psychological thriller that drags you like a frayed brush across the canvas of a broken heart.

across space & time
A conceptual anthology, across space & time follows the same set of characters through a myriad of stories spanning multiple genres, plots, and chronologies, with no canon to tie them together other than the characters and the bonds they share.
Fall in love with the characters with nuanced and raw writing, naturalistic dialogue, and unparalleled “vibes”. See how their relationships evolve and devolve and change as the worlds around them change.
The stories of “across space & time” focus on what makes us human, and sit in the messy discomfort of human experience and emotion.
Created for humans, by humans.
AI
Unless specifically disclosed, no generative AI is used in my writing, art, or music. I currently have no plans to introduce generative AI into my workflows until proper measures are taken to ethically credit artists and protect their works.
