Fourteen G
Bio
Sharita L.
Name: Sharita Lira
Fourteen G (Alpha) founder
Interviewer and Webmistress

"Never tell a book by it's cover"  has always been my favorite motto. The world is full of so many people who define the norm, adhere to the rules and are painfully predictable. Me?  I'd rather start a revolution than follow.
I surround myself with those who who dare to be like me, I challenge my six year old to be original and unique (which he does) and hope that someday people will understand why having an open mind is a key to sanity.

My goal is to continue working with Erika, Kimisha, and Karma, and make Fourteen G the best metal webzine there is.  Providing the masses with in-depth interviews, scintilating topics and up to date information.

I also aspire to write and self-publish my own collection of stories and poems for all to enjoy.  Then, continue on to be one of the top writers in the industry.
Bio: Sharita began writing for fun at the age of 13 submitting work and poetry to teen mags with very little success, she would eventually give up writing until her late 20's.  Then at the age of 27, the same year as the birth of her son, she began to write only to find love for it again writing in the same genre she loved as a child: romance and erotica.

For the last six years Sharita has submitted her works to such online publications as Cleansheets, Erotica Readers and Writers Association, and Desdemona.com. She has received the most accolades and recognition from ERWA with whom she has recieved "Theme Story of the Month" for "Dilemma", "All In The Cards" and "Holiday Cheer".

Over the last two years, she has been freelancing for local publications and writing short stories for ERWA and various writing contests.

Currently she is the founder of Fourteen G (Alpha) webzine, interviewer and webmistress under the 14g/Fourteen G umbrella covering and/or such acts as Sevendust, Killswitch Engage, Machine Head, God Forbid, Crisis, and Mastodon just to name a few.
