Sharon Bernash Smith

Married and raising two sons in rural Washington state, Sharon Bernash Smith wore many hats, including preschool teacher, midwife’s assistant in home birth deliveries, and a Pregnancy Resource Center volunteer. Now, as an author and speaker, Sharon desires to touch lives for Christ through the written word and her own life experiences. Currently, she and Linda Reinhardt speak together for Stonecroft Ministries, International, sharing the gospel in small-group settings throughout the Northwest. “Reality Fiction™ is my commitment to direct my writing toward the human struggles we all face,” Sharon says. “Because there are no ‘pat’ answers in life, you won’t find them in my books. However, God is faithful, and my works will reflect Him as just.” Sharon is the coauthor, with Rosanne Croft and Linda Reinhardt, of the historical novel Like a Bird Wanders, Book One in The McLeod Family Saga, and the Christmas classic, Once Upon a Christmas, as well as the author of Book Two in The McLeod Family Saga, Old Sins, Long Shadows, and the poignant novel, The Train Baby’s Mother (all OakTara). Her story “What Do You Say to a King?” was first published by Focus on the Family and she’s been published in Prayers for Troubled Times (AMG). She serves in women’s ministry as a Bible study leader at her church in Washington. Sharon loves to watercolor and enjoys “landsailing” in the Columbia River Gorge near her home. Spending time with friends and family, especially her four granddaughters, fills her life with joy.
