"... texture, patterns, sensations, and the palpable. It is a feeling of pure sensory detail, washed with imagery and world building. As a woman, it is also a hyper-real experience - every breath, every whisper, every touch in Abigail's work feels visceral, like it could literally travel down the length of my back. It's both seductive and exhilarating."

"She adjusts the mike and scans the room. Then, she takes it over. She chomps through her work. Her words have bite and her delivery…this is not a reading, this is a performance. Remember her name."
- M. Kleinman
"Conklin's poems are full of energy, and an aim, an intention. As if the words are clawing at the page, trying to leap out of it and into your heart."
