✨ Sabbaticals, Stitching & Secret Projects — Sofia's Cozy Writing Corner ✨

aka: the one where I rearrange my desk and accidentally outline three new series

Hey gorgeous,

It’s been a little quiet in the public world of cozy monsters lately, but behind the scenes? I’ve been pre-plotting, pre-writing, and pre-falling in love with more monster love interests than I know what to do with.

Let’s catch up, shall we?


💌 What I’m Writing

First up: The Zodiac Society. I’m in the final stretch of pre-writing all twelve novellas (plus one very special initiation story). Each one is tender, spicy, and just a little unhinged, in the best way. Astraea is earning her way through the wheel of the zodiac, and I’ve never had more fun spoiling a heroine.

I’m also working on two super cozy stories for upcoming projects under Sofia Rose, and they’re both part of anthologies with some of the most amazing authors I’ve ever had the joy of working alongside. These stories are soft, swoony, and full of that signature Sofia Rose sweetness… with just a dash of spice.

And if that wasn’t enough chaos… I’ve officially started drafting the first book in my new cozy monster series. I can’t share too much yet, but it’s warm and romantic and completely wholesome. Think soft growly alphas, quirky small towns, and enough emotional yearning to make your heart do a little wiggle.


🔥 A Little Bit Darker…

Over in the shadows, Sofia Graves has made her debut with Elements of Choking, part of a shared world of standalone dark romances. It’s coming this October and features magical breathplay, dangerous devotion, and a dark wizard who’s definitely not safe but might be soulmate material.

If you’ve ever wanted your HEAs with a side of enchanted restraint and obsessive energy… Sofia Graves has you covered.


📚 What I’m Reading

Right now, I’m deep into the Ruthless Boys series (thank you, book club), and I’ve fully joined the emotionally compromised fae boy fan club. The drama. The chaos. The trauma bonding. I am feasting.

I also picked up First Time Caller, and it’s the perfect palate cleanser, sweet, sexy, and surprisingly soft. Highly recommend if you’re into cute awkwardness, tender love, and falling for someone’s voice first.


🎧 Current Writing Playlist

My soundtrack lately has been a mix of romantic piano and emotionally charged background ambiance. The kind of music that makes everything feel like the opening montage of a soft monster love story.

If you’ve got a playlist that feels like falling in love in a sunbeam, send it my way.


💬 Quick Catch-Up

I’m officially on my soft girl sabbatical, five glorious weeks off between jobs, which I’ve filled with crafting, long writing days, and chasing the fleeting Irish summer through open windows.

I redid my entire desk setup (yes, again), and it’s now the coziest little author nook you’ve ever seen. At the center of it all? Maribelle, my new jellyfish lamp, who may or may not be inspiring an undersea-themed monster romance down the line. She glows. She shimmers. She’s my muse.

And while it’s been a little quieter here on the public side of Sofia Rose, just know I’ve been working away behind the scenes, pre-writing three new series and counting so I can shower you with sweetness when the time comes.


Thanks for hanging out with me, sweetheart. I’ll be back soon with more cozy chaos, flirty updates, and sneak peeks from all the worlds I’m building.

🧁 Stay soft, stay spicy,

Sofia
