Sharon Healy-Yang... Here.

In addition to writing, I recently retired from my day job, teacher in the English Department at Worcester State University. My favorite courses, some of which I developed, were: Romantic and Victorian Gothic; Shakespeare; Witchcraft in Medieval and Renaissance Literature; Screen and Page: Film and Literature; Shakespeare and Film; and Pastoral Literature of the 16th and 17th Century. I love exposing students to ideas (on the page or the screen) that they’ve never thought of before, as well as helping them see themselves in the work of artists new to them. Just as important, not only did I try to get them to think critically and with open minds, but I worked to help them find a voice that accurately, eloquently, and honestly expresses that thinking.

I’m a huge fan of films and books created during the 1930s-50s, with their blend of sharp wit, humor, and dark suspense. That passion inspired me to write Bait and Switch and Letter from a Dead Man, mystery/romance set in the 1940s and published by Touchpoint Press. Letter will be coming out in early Octoberr, 2017.
