She acquired a love for Greek Mythology and creative writing during her high school years. She moved to Atlanta, Georgia in 1994, with the intent to eventually become an entertainer. After going through a handful of failed relationships, she decided to use them as learning experiences. She would later take some of her own personal experiences along with some from her siblings and friends to turn them into a story. After holding on to a vision for nearly ten years, Sha Rhonda suddenly became adamant about sharing her vision with the world. She asked herself how she would make it all come about. She had no connections or mentors to learn what it took to be a successful writer. After hearing that one of her childhood friends released a CD, it only inspired her even more to make it all come together. She is deeply inspired by the awesome works of Tyler Perry. Kimberla Lawson Roby, Terri McMillan, Omar Tyree, Michael Baisden and Yolanda Rabb are a few of her favorite authors.
