Bats, Bayous and BBs (Zine)

Bats, Bayous and BBs is a reflective zine that captures moments of life in Florida through essays by Bevin O’Brien and poems by her father, Roby O’Brien.

Rooted in place and memory, the pieces explore everyday experiences shaped by nature, family, and time—moving through bayous, backyards, and quiet observations that feel both deeply personal and widely familiar. Together, the essays and poems form a portrait of connection: between parent and child, people and landscape, past and present.

Thoughtful and evocative, this zine offers a gentle meditation on what it means to live close to the land and to one another.
