ABOUT SOPHIE MERRYDAY

I’m a redheaded word-lover, based in London. I studied English Literature at Cambridge and have a Master’s in Shakespeare from the Globe. I’ve written copy for huge corporates like BT to small and friendly consultancies, like Bladonmore (hi team). 

​

Creative writing is the double gin shot in the tonic of my life: it’s when things get exciting. I am a founding editor at Third Verse, a Literary Magazine that harnesses new and experimental talent. Take a peak. 

My handbag is always full of hardbacks (much to the demise of my actual back). You can find some thoughts on what I’ve been reading lately here and some of my own writing here.
