Good Dirt
A full-length collection with roots, teeth, and a sense of humor.
Across ninety-four pages, dogs return like old friends; daffodils make promises; technology misbehaves; and the world keeps asking to be noticed with more precision, humor, and care.
“I relish Sandra’s lush, wry words and her wit. And I love her perspective, the way she finds humor and meaning—and beauty—in the small things.”
Kat Bodrie, author and co-editor of Brambles Journal
