Hey There

For those who don't know me that well, I'm Abigail (Abi, AbiKay, or just Abigail coz I'm boring like that. But you got a new name I might answer. 🤣)

 

I'm a small biz/small press owner and I just started BeyondtheBookery.com/ which launched in February of 2023.

 

I am the oldest of 8, daughter of the King, and a homeschooling realtor momma, the proud owner of the cutest hedgie in the world, part owner of our family's two Great Pyrenees pups, one of who we rescued after he ran in front of our bus and followed us home literally and our sweet girl who is the perfect companion to our boy, the curest and sweetest kitty cats, and around 50 of the best chickens (because eggs are expensive and who doesn't love having animals?!).

 

My family moved across the country from outside of D.C. to Oklahoma in 2021, it's been a crazy wonderful few years with many changes.

 

I've been writing and blogging since I was 15. I'm the author of a published novella, several short stories in various anthologies, and I published four anthologies with the amazingly awesome M.L. Milligan in the end of 2023-beginning of 2024! I am working on publishing several new anthologies in 2024 alod with my debut novel, which releases on May 31st, 2024.
