Have you done any Book signings in Houston, TX
Hi Danielle–
I’m sorry I missed this post back in October. I have not done any signings in Houston, although I was in Austin last year. My next book signing will be at Brook Hollow Winery in Columbia, N.J. Wine and books, what’s not to love?!
Hi Sharon – I like your books!
Hi Beth–Thank you for your kind words. Is there one in particular that stands out in your mind? Happy reading! Sharon
I haven’t read any of your books yet. But I’m looking forward to reading them.
Hi JoAnna–Be sure to check out BookRhythm’s Facebook page for give aways. I have two up now. Best regards, Sharon
I am looking forward to reading your books, too.
Kiss of the Virgin Queen is on my tbr list! Is Kiss of the Silver Wolf the second book in the series?
You are a new author to me and I am looking forward to getting to know your work!
Hello Sharon! Love your books!
Kiss of the Silver Wolf and Kiss of the Virgin Queen sound like two really fun, interesting stories to read.
Thank you to all the authors who continue to support the BEllenook Rythm online parties
You’ve lived a very industrious life! And, I’m amazed you started writing sooo young! Congratulations on being successful and bringing pleasure to the minds of fans.
Such an incredible life to tell! Thanks for sharing with us and I look forward to your work.
Wow how interesting! Thanks for sharing and nice to meet you!
Your books sound so fun and imaginative. Would love to get the chance to read. Thank you for being a part of the BookRhythm event.
Thanks for branching out into romance! (I’ve not read one of your textbooks though, which I realize benefitted and could only have been written with your professional background.) And, I’m sure that background complemented your romance novels. Thank you.
Thank you for being a part of the BookRhythm giveaways! I haven’t read your work yet. But, I plan to soon.
Thank you for taking the time to be here with us! You rock!

You are a new author to me, am looking forward to reading your work!
Ms. Buchbinder I enjoy your shifter stories and am hoping to win one on the Howloween booktacular even on facebook. I am financially challenged so buying books comes low on the bill paying. I’ll find you on facebook and stalk you so that if a book goes on sale and I have the monies I know I’ll be buying one.
New fan , thank you!
Looking forward to reading your books!
Not sure if I missed this question, but do you have anything new in the works?

Love finding new authors!! Hello from the West Coast!!
Hello Sharon! So glad I saw this event, enjoyed being part of it last time.
Hi Sharon–great name! Thanks for stopping by! Enjoy the party! Sharon
How do you come up with such interesting stories? What kind of research do you do? Do stories come to you in dreams or from your travels?
Hi Tanja–Thanks for your comment. Sorry for the delay in responding! I am always asking the question, “What if?” What if a an inn goes up for auction? Who would attend? What is the history of the attendees? Who’s the hero, hero, and villain (I write suspense!). Once I have an interesting question, then I completed character sketches for my H/H/V. Then I’m able to create a character driven plot, one that is consistent with their personalities and histories. I research before, during, and after I complete a manuscript. I don’t like loose ends and I want to tie the book up in a bow for my readers. I have a large library of non-fiction books which I supplement with Intenet searches, YouTube videos, and scholarly articles on topics. Sometimes, my husband says, “When are you going to stop researching and WRITE the darn book??” I am a research junkie. 😉
Hi Sharon! How do you come up with such interesting stories? What kind of research do you do? Do stories come to you in dreams or from your travels?
Hi Tanja–Inspiration comes from multiple sources. I love the paranormal and have had many psychic experiences. I’m also grounded in science, so I’m a bit like a mix of Fox and Mulder from X-Files. I want to believe, but I also need good documentation. 😉 As noted before, I research before, during, and after I complete a manuscript. I don’t like loose ends and I want to tie the book up in a bow for my readers.

Hello again, Tanja! Thanks for coming back! I do love travel, which is one of the reasons I’m late responding to people! LOL! Yes, I do use the places I visit in my books. Great question!
Do you like to travel? If so, where? And do you use the places that you go to in your stories?
Hi Sharon! I have the Haunting of Hotel Labelle and I am hoping to read it soon – but I wondered where do you get your inspiration? You seem to have a lot of genres in your writing and that’s awesome!
Hi Erika–I hope you enjoy The Haunting of Hotel LaBelle. Book 2 in the Series, Legacy of Evil, will be out later this year. I’m interested in other cultures and in portraying women as kick ass heroines. When I find an opportunity to blend those two, I’m inspired. 🙂
Hi Suzanne–I think writing was inevitable for me. I told a lot of stories as a child and finally began to write them down.
What got you started writing
Hi Angel! My pleasure! Thanks for stopping by!
Hi! Thank you for joining us in the BookRythm event!
Hiya
Where do you find inspiration?
Hi Suzanne–My books are a blend of family history, topics in the news, ghost stories, cross cultural phenomena, and science. I can find inspiration in the weirdest things. LOL!
Thanks for contributing to BookRhythm’s Events!!☘
My pleasure, Sandy! Enjoy!
Hello!! It is nice to meet you!! Love your bio!!
Hi Angel (beautiful name!) Thanks for stopping by and saying hello!
Do you like to travel to promote your books?
Hi Gina–Travel is pretty expensive for only book promotion, so I focus on my online presence for that. I do travel for business and pleasure, and when I do, I always bring swag like book marks. 🙂
Thank you for being a part of the BookRhythm event and for your giveaway.
Hi Tanja–My pleasure!
Thank you so much for being part of the BookRhythem event
Hi Sue–Thanks for participating!
Thank you for sharing. 😁
Hi Sarah — You are very welcome!
Hi Sharon.
Thank you for taking part in the Book Rhythm Back to School Event. Looking forward to read your books!
Hi Carole–Is that a pug in your photo? We have a chubby puggy named Agent Frank (from Men in Black). They are all personality. The Haunting of Hotel LaBelle has a pug in it named Franny. 🙂
Sharon, I am looking forward to reading your books. Thank you.
Hi Sharon–Great name! I hope you enjoy the reads!
Hi Lynne–Thanks for asking. Yes, absolutely. I use my nursing knowledge when I write about disease and healthcare settings. My description of a character in a coma in SOME OTHER CHILD came from years of ICU visits to draw blood, hang IVs (I was an IV therapist, now I’m in academia).
Hi Sharon, do you find yourself using your nursing experiences in your stories?
Hi Lynne–Thanks for asking. Yes, absolutely. I use my nursing knowledge when I write about disease and healthcare settings. My description of a character in a coma in SOME OTHER CHILD came from years of ICU visits to draw blood, hang IVs (I was an IV therapist, now I’m in academia).
What caused the change from a medical career to writing?
Hi Brandy–I’ve always been a story teller and I’ve been publishing short stories and textbooks for years. The switch to romance was a learning curve, but it has all come together!
Do you read medical novels or do you stay away from them?
Hi Sarah–I was addicted to Robin Cook when he was alive. I enjoy a good medical thriller, or thrillers with epidemics. My first medical thriller was MEDICAL DETECTIVES. Got me interested in biology and healthcare.
Hiya Sharon!
Hi Suzanne! (WAVING BACK)
I’m really looking forward to reading your books.
Hi Phyllis–I hope you enjoy the stories!
Thank you for participating in this.
My pleasure, Sarah. I’m happy to participate.

HI Sharon. If you could co-author with another author, who would it be and why?
Where do you draw your inspiration from?
Sharon,
Are you ready for the Holidays???
Hi Sharon,
What inspires you when writing? Do you have a favorite spot you like to be when coming up with ideas for a new story? When writing do you listen to music to help? if so, what kind of music do you listen to? Any certain beverages that you drink to help when writing?
