I am a passionate storyteller.

I firmly believe that good stories make up life, whether it’s at work or play. Persuasive communication has driven change throughout history and that’s what I strive to do with my writing. I treat my work as art and dedicate my time to craft words that bring hope and curiosity.

I am also a big fan of creativity. From creativity in thinking to action, I champion all things creative. A life devoid of creativity lacks vibrancy.

When I am not writing, I am a mom to two toddlers, so you can take a wild guess how that is. It’s while dealing with the ups and downs of parenting that I started to take my gift of writing seriously and have found solace in it. I also try to help others to embrace all of life’s flavors, the sweet, the salty, and the bitter.

Alongside being a stay-at-home mom to my kids, I am a freelance writer and blogger.

I also have prior experience of working with non-profits as a communications person and storytelling was a big part of my job to influence change and raising resources.

Please do give me a shout out if you are looking to tell good stories on life, parenting, self -improvement, Christian faith, and the likes.

I write for pleasure but a girl’s got to eat too, right?

Sherbeth, my blog

A mix of flavors in a drink is called a sherbeth (the Indian name for a cocktail/mocktail). The acronym of my name, Sheryl, and my daughter’s name, Bethany also gave birth to Sherbeth.

Can any of us claim to be of a single flavor? No, right! Our lives are a mix of a lot of factors that make us who we are. With an ingredient list of experiences, cultures, faith, relationships, emotions, choices, thoughts, etc. we all have a unique take on the world. This blog is my take on the world as I see it, somedays as a finicky child and others with a bit of grandmotherly advice.

Through my blog, I want to encourage others to embrace who they are with all their kinks and kicks. The Author of Life created us to curate the little details of our lives, so however flawed we are, believe me, there’s a purpose to us being around here. You are a secret recipe and if your own mother doesn’t get it, you aren’t alone!

Sherbeth is about my journey full of life observations infused with mistakes made and lessons learned. I want to steal a moment from your life and connect with you over a glass of ‘Sherbeth’ and who knows we might hit it off! Do visit and subscribe.

Sarcasm is my primary language. I also write well in English. Being multi-passionate I write on various topics as life throws them at me.
