Abigail is a queer neurodivergent (autistic & ADHD) author, illustrator and Emmy award-winning creative producer living in Brighton, England in the UK. Original storytelling has always been at the heart of Abigail's career and she has spent 12+ years leading social media campaigns for some of the biggest TV & entertainment clients in the world including Sony Music, BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Netflix. Abigail also used to perform stand-up comedy and won several tiny trophies for her onstage humour; which involved life-size illustrations, ridiculous songs and rambling stories about her family. Her book about growing up autistic and not knowing she was autistic, A Different Sort of Normal, was named Puffin Books' lead non-fiction title of 2021 and has received many other accolades including being shortlisted for Children's Non-Fiction Book of the Year at the British Book Awards 2022 and longlisted for Best Book With Facts at the Blue Peter Book Awards 2021. A Different Sort of Normal was republished in USA and Canada this year under the slightly different title A Different Kind of Normal, and has been featured in the New York Times.
