Liath LaVerne Hawke

Writer, artist, creative entrepreneur, coder, mother of chickens, servant to cats, and guardian of two adorable lovebirds.

Liath started her journey as a writer back in High school around 2010. After going through a tough depression phase a year later, she decided to write darker stories. From there, she progressed forward to write stories set in a oversized multiverse world in the science fiction, fantasy, and horror genre. While she's always been an artists, the last several years has been a journey to improve her artist skills so that she can illustrate for her books.

Vision Statement

A good story is like candy for our brains. It comes in all shapes, sizes, colors, and textures to meet our specific needs. It preserves a balance of flavors without overpowering what it compliments. The taste is always satisfying, no matter how dark or light it gets. In difficult times, we need these brain candies to help us escape the hardships for just a little bit and enjoy some fun and freedom, even if the characters in the story are going through similar tough times like you. Experiencing the worst of this world captured in a story helps us feel that we’re not alone in our fight to live.
