Christina Anne Hawthorne
Alive and well in the Rocky Mountains. I'm a fantasy writer who also dabbles in poetry, short stories, and map making. My Ontyre tales are an alternative fantasy experience, the stories rich in mystery, adventure, and romance. Alternative fantasy? Not quite steampunk. Not quite gothic. In truth, the real magic is in those who discover what's within.

Wrapped in the Velvet of Her Soul
She wasn’t what she seemed, she was that place where dreams went when they required a key, far away, yet, beneath a gentle touch amidst her heart’s glow, transformed, wrapped in the velvet of her soul. She’d become what she … Continue reading
The Heart’s Vision
The ever in forever after, she thought it was a dream’s eternity without the never. A reason so reasonably dreamed, she followed her heart’s inclinations no matter the season. Each door a corridor she explored, took her mind’s eye to … Continue reading
