"Girl In Space"
Abandoned on a dying ship in the farthest reaches of known space, a young scientist fights for survival (and patience with the on-board A.I.). Who is she? No one knows. But a lot of dangerous entities really want to find out.
"Omen" Podcast
From Executive Producer Sarah Rhea Werner comes a fantasy audio drama that explores ancient ruins, sails the high seas, and questions whether friendship truly is magic—all while cracking pirate skulls and dabbling in high explosives!
10 Harmful Creative Myths Ebook
In this free 50-page ebook, I dive into the harmful lies we’ve been told about creativity — and take a look at the truths we need to move forward and create our best work.
Speaking
I’m an energetic, passionate, and empowering national speaker with relatable warmth, a unique perspective, and a sense of humor. In addition to a TEDx talk, I’ve spoken at New York Comic Con, Podcast Movement, YouTube headquarters, DC Podfest, and the Austin Film Festival, as well as many local and national leadership seminars, business and tech conferences, and college classrooms.
“Listening to Sarah is like a great session with your therapist who says all the right things to get you back in the chair and writing.”
