Lydia M. Hawke writes urban fantasy where women of a certain age save the world—because experience is the most powerful magic of all.

Her heroines don’t wait to be rescued. They’re witches, warriors, and wise women who’ve lived long enough to know their power—and who aren’t afraid to use it. Her award-winning novel Becoming Crone was featured on Felicia Day’s Felicitations! Book Club Show.

When she’s not writing, Lydia can be found at home in Canada, fueled by dangerous amounts of coffee, spoiling her grandkids, wrangling her menagerie of pets, and convincing her garden to cooperate.

Her mission? Reclaiming the word ‘crone’ for what it truly is—a crown, not an insult.
