D.W. Hawkins
Best Selling Author
D.W. Hawkins is notorious in multiple countries. Like Voldemort, if you mention his name, it draws his attention.
D.W. Hawkins fought in Iraq and Afghanistan, and spent a large chunk of his life in the military. He’s been in a motorcycle club and in college classrooms. He swam naked in the Potomac and survived a knife fight in a foreign country. He’s played his guitar on three separate continents. He’s probably on a watchlist somewhere, but he couldn’t tell you which.
Really, he’s just a guy who writes stories about wizards, and he hopes you like his books.
My Story
Welcome! I’m D.W. Hawkins, a storyteller at heart with a passion for crafting worlds brimming with intrigue, action, and unforgettable characters. As an author of dark epic fantasy, my works explore the delicate balance of power, politics, and human resilience against unimaginable odds.
Over the years, I’ve published seven full-length novels, several novellas, and short stories, with more in the works. My writing journey has also taken me into thrilling collaborations, including contributing to the universe of a major gaming publisher.
Beyond the written page, I’m a father, combat veteran, podcaster, musician, teacher, and lifelong learner. Whether I’m teaching students to weld, unraveling the fall of the Roman Republic on my history podcast, or diving into my latest novel, I approach everything with curiosity, discipline, and a touch of alchemy.
This site is the respository for all things related to my writing. Welcome, and I hope you find what you’re looking for.
