Anna K. Abbi

Biography

I grew up spending my time on a very large wheat farm in the Kansas Prairie, or with my Grandmother in Topeka. Life was full with friends, school, success, and abuse. My father was a war vet. He returned from the war grappling with PTSD, and raised hell for our family. This ended badly! At age 17 I set out for California on my own, my life corrected and I found success in jobs and relationships. At the age of 24 I became a quadriplegic for 63 days, after breaking my neck in a car accident. By some miracle, my body recovered, and I walked away. I then moved to Santa Barbra where I started three businesses, Earned my living, purchased homes, cars, and and lived a life I feel proud to have experienced. I moved to Vermont for the allure of cleaner air, and a slower life style about thirty years later. I still visit my Santa Barbra home for three or four months every year to see old friends. I have managed, despite all, a 20 year loving life in a relationship. I have two Rhodesian ridge-back, girl dogs, and a fifty year old parrot that I hand raised from just a chick. I am a happy, healthy, productive human, living life exactly as I please and loving it!

About five years ago I decided to start writing books. I have now completed three books, two of which are published, one in the wings. I like to think of myself as an unconventional author. I like to break the norm. My writings range from Mysteries or True stories, to Comedies and even Children's books.

While writing Chrysalis, my mind would, of course, return to the hospital room where I regained my life and freedom. As I strived to explain the experience, I noticed how it had changed me and set me on a better path to the rest of my life. This unusual experience, though difficult, improved how I react, and accept many good and not so wonderful things to come.
