Abigail Stevens

Abigail double majored in English and French at UC Santa Barbara and completed an MPhil in Medieval Literature at Oxford University. As much as she loves exploring new places, she is tired of moving, having gone from California to the UK and now living in Boston. She writes about pop culture and travel and produces a newsletter on these subjects in addition to writing for Screen Rant and undertaking other freelance projects. In between all this, Abigail is listening to Taylor Swift and Florence + The Machine, rewatching old cartoons, reading new fantasy books, or going to a drag show in Boston.
