Who am I?

I’m Sophie! (By the way, my last name is pronounced BROTE [like GOAT]-mar-cull. It’s German for breadmaker. My name is literally Wisdom Baker.)

I’m from Virginia Beach, Virginia, and am one of the few military kids who never had to move while growing up. I graduated from East Carolina University with a BA in Theatre Arts and a minor in Creative Writing. At ECU, I found my passion in writing and comedic improvisation; which I hope to hone in life. My dream job would be to write for a sitcom.

I am interested in work written by and for female identifying folk and produced a play called: I’m Scared of Whales, Bad Drivers, and Nobody Knowing My Name, that scratched the surface of my fears and hopes in life. Additionally, I have had three short stories published in The Lookout: A Journal of Undergraduate Research at ECU, v11.1.

I love to play chess (I have nine sets), listening to classical/instrumental music (never give me the AUX cord in the car) and hanging out with my two cats in Virginia Beach (Ginger and Pepper, or, The Spice Cats). I can quote The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel to an obscene degree and one of my biggest brags is that I’ve read War and Peace. Thanks for stopping by! (Good luck guessing my favorite color!)
