Sophia Newman

Sophia Newman is an author, music and art therapist, and lifelong advocate for emotional wellbeing, creative healing, and soulful self-expression. With a background in therapeutic arts and a passion for helping others connect more deeply—with themselves and one another—Sophia’s books blend compassion, insight, and a touch of playful sparkle.

Whether she’s guiding readers through the intricacies of relationships in her ‘How to Attract the Right Man’ books, or crafting heart-centered romance novels that stir both laughter and tears, Sophia writes with the wisdom of experience and the warmth of someone who truly believes in love, growth, and second chances.

Liberal in spirit and generous in heart, Sophia brings balance and boldness to her partnership with her husband, Merlin Newman—a retired scientist and fellow author. Their ideological differences fuel vibrant conversations, and their shared values create unshakable harmony. Sophia writes from the heart; Merlin writes from the head—and somehow, they always meet in the middle.

Together, they’ve turned their home into a hub of spirited dialogue, creative competition, and mutual admiration. When Sophia writes a relationship guide, Merlin responds with one of his own. When she releases a sweeping romance, he counters with a daring sci-fi epic. And yet, in every book they write—whether solo or side-by-side—their shared belief in hope, healing, and humanity shines through.
