Keeping Up With Sharon

"Let us go forth, the teller of tales, and seize whatever prey the heart long for, and have no fear. Everything exists, everything is true, and the earth is only a little dust under our feet." -William Butler Yeats, The Celtic Twilight (A Teller of Tales)

You've reached the website of Sharon Gerlach (aka Sio): writer, rescuer of cats and kids, and (future) domesticator of squirrels (I am determined that little critter will be mine!). I have written three novel-length works and am at work on a fourth. I write in the genres of women's fiction, supernatural romance, and a little urban fantasy. Some of my work is written under my pseudonym, Siobhan MacIntyre. One of my women's fiction novels is being considered by a literary agent who has asked for a partial manuscript. In addition to all this writing and domesticating of squirrels, I run an e-zine called Forever Nocturne with three friends. We currently offer it to readers for free as we're trying to build a reputation; eventually we'd like to offer it by subscription and make a little money, which we can offer to our contributors. If you'd like to submit to the e-zine, please don't send submissions to my e-mail. Send them to Forever Nocturne Submissions. Thanks much. Writing is a hard profession. You can work all your life at perfecting your Great American Novel and never earn a dime for it. If you're writing to get rich--well, good luck. I write because I need to; there are stories in my head begging to be released, and characters' voices longing to be heard. I would write even if no one read me. This website serves as my portfolio. I hope you enjoy my writing. If not--c'est la vie. I take no offense. There are so many styles, genres, and topics that there truly is something for everyone. Still, I thank you for stopping and sampling. I remain, as ever, Your Humble Fiction-Writing Squirrel Tamer Last Updated 3-22-2009 * Background image: Messel Mansion, England ©Steve Knight
