Ciao!

Welcome! I’m the Nicole Sharp of Nicole Sharp Writes. (Catchy huh?)

Before I published my books, this website was a blog, a place for my thoughtful reflections on Italy, life, writing, and coffee. Not necessarily in that order.

I’ve been writing since I was twelve, for real. Always driven to recreate and savor everything I’ve seen, tasted and heard in this world.

Let’s see, what should you really know about me?

I am a purveyor of world travel and the perfect Cappuccino. A search that will never be over because there are too many places I haven’t yet been.

I have a fancy Bachelors in History. (Think Romans and Greeks.) Why didn’t I take English in College if I always wanted to be a writer? History had much, much better stories.

I have spent the past hundred years traveling, creating a mountainous pile of work, finding myself, writing, drinking coffee, traveling, getting married, writing, and having a baby. And writing.

I have four faithful readers (apart from my mom) who call my writing engaging, relatable and funny. I hope you find that too.

I am currently drinking a cappuccino that I made myself in my own home without a fancy machine. I talk about them a lot.

I. Love. Moose. I’m not kidding. Read all about why here.  My life is littered with moose paraphernalia.

I have two books available right now! Big Trouble in Little Italy and Simply Protocol.

I have a quick, entertaining newsletter I send out once a month. I can be found on Instagram and Facebook and I add blog posts as I feel the need to share the quirks I see around me.

I’m glad you’ve found my world. I write to entertain. I hope you find some of that value here.

Enjoy.
