The idea for her debut novel came to her when she was pondering how classic romantic comedies would look through the lens of diverse and queer characters. Most of the fiction that she submitted for the event was Harry Potter and hence she asserts that this has inspired much of her subsequent writing. Sophia started actively writing when she lied to get into the Mugglenet fanfiction event at age eleven. When she is not writing or working, she loves to ice skate, perform at the musical theatre, hike, watching TV, play PC games and play the piano. While she always dreamt of becoming a professional author, she currently holds a day job as a psychologist. Sophia published her first novel “The Law of Inertia” in 2018 and then followed it up with her romantic comedy in 2020 titled “Only Most Devastated” that she published with Macmillan/Wednesday Books. Her mother helped type out the story though they had a huge fight as her mother wanted the story to end with the characters going to get a milkshake while she wanted to kill everyone. Sophia first got into writing as a five-year-old when she came up with a story while taking a bath. Gonzalez was born and grew up in Whyalla, South Australia often referred to as “Outback Meets the Sea.” While she now lives in one of the biggest cities in Australia, she does not have the outback but now has her fill of shopping opportunities. Sophia Gonzalez is a romantic comedy and young adult author who writes novels full of endless heart, biting wit and memorable characters.
