Abigail Miles decided to dedicate her life to stories from a young age, leading first to majoring in creative writing in college and now to spending far too much of her time attached to her computer, composing stories and books. Abigail currently lives in Boston, where all her time (or very nearly all her time) is spent in some combination of writing books, reading books, and making tea to drink while writing and/or reading said books. Sometimes she does actual work, too. The Building That Wasn’t is her first novel.
