Sharon Moore Stenhouse (aka) a'Kihoro found her voice when she put pen to paper, or fingers to keyboard, and discovered that writing poetry is a life changing catharsis. Since publishing her first book in 2007, she has written and published four more, developed a creative writing workshop, and become a registered publisher. Presently she is working on completion of her first novel.

Background
Information
|
|
a'Kihoro SPIRITUAL CREATIONS is now a registered publisher. This is the result of continued efforts in publishing my own work, and the desire to help people who have been writing for years to step out on faith and publish their book.
In addition to my writing and publishing assistance, I offer graphic and publication design to faith based organizations.
Seven Biblical Women: Creative Writing through Bible Study is another project of which I am proud. Launced in March '09 this is a full-day workshop teaching how to use the Bible to develop stories and characters.
Serving on numerous non-profit boards over the years such as The Friends of Benjamin Banneker Historical Park & Museum, Inc., provided the opportunity to expand my horizons, which in turn gave me more reason to wrote. I worked ss chairperson of programs and development committees, and coordinator of the museum’s Baltimore Artscape festival exhibits where my graphic and publication talents served me well. I am considered an expert on the history of Benjamin Banneker and frequently lecture on Banneker’s life and times.
