Abigail Johnson

Abigail Johnson, a Pennsylvania native, began her writing journey during a cross-country move to Arizona at twelve, a trip she documented in a purple notebook she still keeps. Johnson's writing career in the young adult genre includes notable works like If I Fix You and Every Other Weekend.

Despite becoming a tetraplegic after a car accident at seventeen, she embraced life's adventures, including bodysurfing in Mexico and directing a high-school play.

Her debut novel, If I Fix You" (2016), is a contemporary young adult story. It explores the life of sixteen-year-old Jill Whitaker, who grapples with her mother's sudden departure and the ensuing family secrets. As Jill navigates her broken world, she encounters Daniel, a new neighbor with his own hidden scars, leading her to realize that fixing others starts with mending her own life.

In Girl on the Run (2020), a young adult thriller, Johnson introduces Katelyn, who inadvertently exposes her mother's mysterious past through an online dating profile. This revelation launches them into danger, forcing Katelyn to unravel long-concealed secrets. The book was recognized as a 2023 Missouri Gateway Book Award Winner and a 2021 YALSA Quick Picks for Reluctant Readers Nominee.

Her latest novel, Every Time You Go Away (2023), continues her foray into contemporary young adult fiction.

And as I closed the door, the only person I hated was myself.

It’s the pushing people away, never do that, it hurts more

fall was the word most often coupled with love, falling in and falling out of. How was that even possible?
