Nothing Quite Like It
I'm Abigail, an actor and filmmaker from Orlando, Florida. Everybody wants to be an actor, waiting for opportunities to come to them. Only select individuals truly take a chance and go for it.
When I was a kid, I would get books taken away as a punishment, and I would get odd looks as I dove into a world of characters. "She sighed thoughtfully" a page would say. Nope, I sighed thoughtfully. Needing to feel what the character feels, know how they think, predict their next move. You would think I was in the Secret Service.
