About Sharla
Hi, I’m Sharla…writer, memoir coach, and believer in the healing power of storytelling.
For most of my life, I carried stories I didn’t know how to tell. I wasn’t sure I was “qualified” to write them. I didn’t have a literary degree. I wasn’t famous. I just had a past that shaped me, a voice that felt buried, and a longing to make sense of where I’d been.
When I finally sat down to write my memoir, it wasn’t just about the words. It was about reclaiming my truth, finding the thread that connected the pain, the beauty, and the resilience. It was about transforming my lived experience into something meaningful. Something I could pass on. That process changed me, and now I help others do the same.
My work is for the emerging writer who knows they have a story inside them, but doesn’t know where to begin. For the ones who feel unsure, unqualified, or overwhelmed by the idea of writing a book. I’m here to show you that you don’t have to do it alone, and that your truth is more than enough.
I offer memoir coaching, creative writing kits, and ritual-based tools that support you in uncovering your story, writing with intention, and turning your truth into a legacy.
This is more than writing.
It’s transformation.
It’s ritual.
It’s the beginning of something lasting.
If I could do it, so can you.
Let’s begin your story…together.
My Writing Journey
I’ve been writing since I could hold a pen, but for a long time, I didn’t think it counted unless it was polished and published. I’ve since learned that the most important writing isn’t always the kind you share—it’s the kind that saves you.
I’m the author of:
Unbroken Pieces: A Collection of Poems
Where I Belong: My Journey from Little Girl Lost to Found
Both born from the belief that healing doesn’t need to be pretty, just honest.
What I Offer
Digital retreats & writing rituals to help you reconnect with your creative voice
Memoir coaching and mentorship services
Poems and reflections that say the quiet things out loud
Writing prompts, resources, and blog posts for when you feel stuck or uncertain
A Few Things About Me
I’m autistic, and I write a lot about what that means for how I show up, create, and connect.
I have a deep love for quiet mornings, fresh notebooks, and good coffee.
I once wrote a poem every single day for a year. It changed my life.
My big three: Scorpio, Virgo, and Aries
