Seeking hope on the horizon, having faith for today, and encouraging others to step into their potential to live life fully with courage, boldness, and beauty. My friends describe me as fierce, kind, and encouraging.
Rene (Rose) Hawthorne
I love stories that speak to both the heart and the imagination. Whether I’m crafting romantic fantasy adventures, fairy tale-infused love stories, or space operas with heart, I believe great fiction reaches into the deepest places of creativity and meaning.
I am also an avid walker and bicyclist who draws inspiration from the lush greens of Washington State. When I’m not writing, I lead worship with her church praise team.
Just to note: Rene Hawthorne is a pen name for author Tyrean Martinson, who normally writes adventure-first fantasy and scifi, with some quirky poetry, short fiction, and nonfiction, as well. This pen name is here for the exploration of romance as a genre.
