"It is spring – that month that comes in like a lamb and takes its leave with a vicious swipe of its lion’s paw"

A stunner from @fionamckay.bsky.social Love the language, the rhythms, the deep and resonant emotions beneath every word. Brilliant, brilliant writing.

Read "Unexpected Weather" written by @fionamckay.bsky.social and illustrated by @brooksiesbooks.bsky.social.

"They had been full, full, full, and now it is so lovely to be empty, to be so full of potential and not the leavings of people’s lives."

SO fun, so strangely moving. Good stuff. Inspires me to go back to an object-based flash I started this time last year.

@fionamckay.bsky.socialOct 3, 2026, 12:08 PM

Hey Dina, thank you! And I’m so glad it’s inspiring you to go back to your flash!! ❤️❤️❤️

Go read this lovely story I got to illustrate, and prepare to feel emotional about rubbish bins!!

@fionamckay.bsky.socialOct 3, 2026, 12:06 PM

Brooksie! I love these pretty bins so much, thank you! ❤️❤️❤️

"They walk on cooling sand by the sea at the end of another hot day, where they call out to each other, over the sound of the waves,...."

This is stunning!!! Like Virgina Woolf collided with @fionamckay.bsky.social on steroids!!!⬇️⬇️⬇️

@fionamckay.bsky.socialOct 3, 2026, 10:11 AM

Thank you, Suzanne!! ❤️😍❤️ I will absolutely take any comparison to Woolf (however much undeserved!)

"On they fly, calling to one another in alarm and joy." It's about bins, but not really, and it's absolutely gorgeous. Brava, @fionamckay.bsky.social 🗑️💙

It’s a masterclass, Kathy ❤️
