Who is Abigail?

 After some time, Abigail found her way into college. There, she enhanced a range of her abilities, including writing. Even though it was not her major.

When covid came around. Abigail trusted a few people with something important, and they her down. That’s when she lost control over her life. Most days she didn’t feel like getting up, not even to eat. She pretty much gave up and did whatever anyone suggested as a career choice. But no matter what she did, it just made her more miserable, and it wasn’t helping her move forward in the direction she wanted to. Abigail felt like there was nothing to do to reclaim her life. She just wanted to wait until it was her time, but that took too long, so she decided to give writing a try. And you know what, it gave Abigail a reason to get up. 

       At first, the story was an idea. Then a paragraph. Then a chapter. Then a full novel that’s a part of a series, called The Season of Stuff Animals. To learn more about that, scroll down to Inspired Stories. At the time, she was writing on her phone since her laptop screen was broken, but Abigail had to finish that story. When the novel was done, she realized that she liked writing and decided to choose it as a career. 

       To get it published and reviewed was an engrossing and lonely process for Abigail. However, in time, she did find a few editors and professors online who reviewed her book. Overall, her first written work was okay to their opinion. Not bad, but not good. To Abigail, she heard, it’s a fixer upper. So, she paused on writing novels and started to learn how to further develop her writing skill. Then practiced those skills by creating short fiction which was recommended frequently by other authors online. The more you write, the better you’ll get at it, right? 

Everyone has their own style and preference. For her, she likes to write stories that just pop up in her head. These stories are usually realistic, a bit dark and harsh, containing odd characters in dire situations, and different point of views, but in a fun way (insert smiley face here, LOL). Her work is typically for new adults (ages between 18-29). Almost every day Abigail has a new story idea. She believes that stories should encourage profound thoughts or have a fun adventure. Both in the same story is preferred.

       Even though writing wasn’t Abigail’s childhood passion, she still has a strong desire to write. It was her motive to get up and take control of the day. She does take responsibility for the years she has lost and learned her lesson. She currently still going through tough times, but it has gotten better.  Abigail has been networking with other writers and authors, joining writing webinars, and finding other resources to further evolve her writing ability. That was when she learned about short fiction and started to write them. Furthermore, she rekindled her zealousness to animate. Animation was one of Abigail’s childhood hobbies. She went ahead and learned how to improve her animation and a bit of her drawing capabilities. She did a few simple animations with what she has, on her social media platforms. Feel free to take a peek. Abigail is planning to start a YouTube channel that focus on her animation where she can share her developing skills, as well as sharing her stories through a different type of medium.

       Even though Abigail’s writing has advanced, she still struggles with other problems, such as her environment, and nasty procrastinating habits. She found and followed Jerry Jinkins advice. She scheduled her procrastination and gave herself a deadline to complete various tasks. Every month she will write, edit, rewrite, and then share her best short stories for you to read online on this website. She is working on a novel, so she will share fewer short fictions than usual. Abigail is also doing her best to animate, create voice-overs, find sound effects and background music, to create her animations to share her stories through a different medium. She has to work with what she has, but it’s not enough for her passion the blossom to its fullest potential. If you want to help her, you can buy her novel for support or follow her on social media.

       Another thing that she has learned is, no one will care about your accomplishments more than you. Abigail is happy that she’s able to improve her skill sets and become adept at simple animations, built this website to share a few of her designs, as well as sharing her short fictions, and she has written a novel. She’ll do whatever it takes (that’s within her financial limits) to continue to grow and share her work with you.

       Before 2030, Abigail wishes to become a novelist. She wants to at least finish writing a novel series, a stand-alone book, a least twenty short fictions, and finished a short animation series with advanced animation. Even if she accomplishes those goals, she plans to continue to write short fiction along with novels. She just wants to write stories filled with fun adventures and interesting points of views that can evoke wonder and deep thoughts.

  She loves this career choice, because it makes her allows her to use her creativity. Being self-directed is a personal value of hers. On the side, she also enjoys nature (especially animals), music, puzzles, and traveling. She would love to travel. Because of her life circumstances, she doesn’t go anywhere. She would love to explore new places and cultures, which may inspire her to write more interesting stores with extraordinary points of view. Like the inspired stories below this section.
