Later, I asked Jane if she liked poetry. The convo went something like, "Oh yes, I have written a few poems". Me: "Have you thought about putting them in a collection?" J: "No, but my son might do that". Me: "Would you like a copy of my book?" (pressing it into her hands, lol). J: "Oh, yes please!"

Amanda Dobson from Enviroschools and I got to chat with her about environmental education. 🧵

I have a wee chapbook of poems coming out in a couple of months - 'A stoic recovery of disordered seasons'. Wish I could say with any confidence the title's prophetic!
