About the Author
Sandy Gingras is a writer, poet, and artist with her own design company who has turned her love of prose and her love of the seashore into her life¹s work. In her first book, the popular How to Live on an Island (Down The Shore Publishing, 1996), Ms. Gingras used her home shores to symbolically illustrate ways that we can slow down and appreciate life and our environment. Ms. Gingras is a longtime resident of Long Beach Island, on the New Jersey coast, where she is actively involved in efforts to preserve open space and wetlands. She lives there with her son, three cats and a yellow Labrador retriever. She has a masters in English from Duke University, and has been involved in poetry and writing workshops. She has traveled extensively along East Coast beaches and islands and lived for a year in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands.
