Award-winning urban fantasy and paranormal women’s fiction author Lydia M. Hawke is the delightfully dark alter-ego of romance writer Linda Poitevin.

When worlds collide or apocalyptic disaster strikes, Lydia’s mature, magical heroines are more than capable of saving themselves–and the world, if necessary. Her paranormal women’s fiction novel Becoming Crone was a 2023 InD’Tale Magazine RONE Award winner and has been featured on Felicia Day’s Felicitations Book Club Show.

Lydia makes her home in Canada where she spends her free time enjoying what some would argue is too much coffee, doting on her grandchildren, caring for her collection of pets, and tending to her ever-evolving garden.
