Poetry

Beneath Borrowed Skiesmy debut poetry collectionis about surviving what breaks us, honoring what shapes us, and searching for light in the cracks.

These poems are my way to make sense of the world through words and to remind myself—and you—to find joy, even in the hardest moments.

Children's Books

The Wake Up book series is a joyful and gentle children’s collection designed to help young readers recognize their feelings, calm their minds, and choose joy, courage, and kindness every day.

Through six playful and rhythmic books—Bravery, Listening, Sharing, Helping, Kindness, and Happiness—children are invited to understand their emotions, even when they feel grumpy, sad, or frustrated.

About MacKenzie

I'm MacKenzie Fitzgerald, a writer of poetry and children’s literature whose work explores the quiet intersections of memory, emotion, and truth. Guided by a lifelong love of language, I create spaces on the page where vulnerability meets resilience, and where both adults and children can find words that reflect their own experiences.
