Her work has been published in several essay anthologies, and articles, essays, columns, and letters by her have appeared in The New York Times, The Huffington Post, Katie Couric's Wake-Up Call, journals for the American Academy of Psychotherapists and the University of Colorado Hospital’s Center for Bioethics and the Humanities, and elsewhere.

“Eloquent and fiercely hopeful.”

“Nancy Sharp’s honesty and hard-earned wisdom make this book essential reading
for anyone facing adversity—which is all of us.”
- Ann Hood, New York Times bestselling author
"I adore Nancy's story because it speaks to something so important to being healthy, which is resilience. Nancy could have become stuck in her sadness but decided to move forward instead. That takes courage, which can be scary, but it can really contribute to the good life."
