About CW

CW Hawes is a multi-genre author and award winning poet. His interests are wide ranging and this is reflected in his books.

He is the author of over 20 post-apocalyptic, mystery, alternative history, and horror novels and stories. 

Among CW’s many interests are a love for fine food, tea, music (classical, swing, folk, and ‘50s and ‘60s pop), philosophy and mythology, art and architecture, books, history, nature, writing instruments (especially fountain pens and dip pens), airships, and steam power technology. All of these find a place in his writing.

He is married to Raihana Dewji, who was a graphic artist for 3M and currently paints and draws fine art and produces book covers.

CW was born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio and has sojourned in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York City, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Iowa. For thirty years he was employed by Hennepin County in Minnesota and worked in human service. He retired in 2015, and now resides in the Houston, Texas area.
