Singing Riptide
Release date: September 4, 2025
What early readers are saying…
“There’s a crash in all of our lives, whether it is the result of bad choices or circumstances we don’t control. How we live through our hardships determines who we become. Cheryl Wilder’s Singing Riptide is a book for all who have fallen and all who have had the strength to get back up.”
—Barbara Presnell, author of Otherwise, I’m Fine
“Singing Riptide is an intense book of memory and regret, but also a marvelous triumph in the fact that Wilder’s poetry itself creates a way for both poet and reader of this rewarding book to discover what Ross Gay would also call ‘unabashed joy,’ and yes, redemption.”
—Richard Jackson, author of Footprints: Poems

“Readers interested in literary, personal stories of transformation and change will find the beat of these poems in their hearts provides inspection not into just one life changed by a bad choice and its lasting consequences, but newfound connections to home, family, and a revised purpose in life.
It’s a potent collection that invites readers to walk in Cheryl’s shoes. And, it provides traction for assessing and moving beyond these poignant and powerful moments of quiet desperation.” —Diane Donovan, Midwest Book Review
