About
Sharlene Faith Gomez
Sharlene Faith Gomez loved reading long before she realized she could write. By sixth grade, she discovered she could handle both prose and poetry. At the time, it felt less like a calling and more like another useful skill added to her intellectual toolkit. Her professional career unfolded in corporate shared services, compliance, and business process outsourcing, where writing was precise, structured, and not especially fond of whimsy. She authored training manuals, handbooks, operations manuals, processes, procedures, and presentations. Imagination was not fired. It was simply asked to wait quietly outside. It waited. At 60, she let it back in. Her return to storytelling began with God Is a Gentleman, a children’s book written as a bedtime story and originally intended only as a gift for friends with young children. Encouraged to publish, she did. She later wrote short stories exploring artificial intelligence, alternate futures, and moral questions that resist easy answers. These became the 1s and 0s (Ones and Zeros) Anthology. She also developed inductive Bible study workbooks for the New Testament, shaped by years of facilitating discipleship groups and asking one simple question: “What do you want to study next?” Yes, she wrote this biography too.
