Soad broke into the regional and national literary scene with her book 'Reasons of weight', some stories focused on popular stories from Ciénaga de Oro, her homeland, under the spell of Sinú.

Her first challenge as a woman was daring to write in a department that had no tradition of women writers, and she blazed that trail in the face of harassment, stigma, and social prejudice.[3]
