Hello and welcome! My name’s Billy, and I’m a writer.
A writer. With a book. (Two books, now!)
Which I’m thrilled about: a life-achievement for me — as well as a start.
So an author, even. Also been a journalist, sports — and a bit beyond.
A writer. With a website, a blog.
… Building one. First time. I’m a little lost, but liking the outlook. Holstered with my master’s degree in writing, I possess all the website-building experience of … well, you’ll see it here, live and alive, wiggling and wanting to get away. But also unfolding into a foundation.
Feels risky. Took me time, much TIME, to get here. But follow along as I frame some walls and push ’em up: I don’t think it’ll be too dangerous. Tempted to keep your distance? Return for progress reports. Thanks for checking in.
A writer. With a goal.
Goal: billyhawes.com is the growing home of my website/blogs/books/podcasts as I share my writing and voice with you, and the world. (I have sold a book in a place where the people pay with pounds, so there’s that! Emphasis on a, as in one. Hey, a start! This page will be so outdated when I’ve sold a million … )
Your hands itching to hold that worldwide-selling book? Please see Billy Hawes (Author) or the Recommended Reading Page for more on my first novel, Baseball Boys: Collision and No. 2: Boy Who Wore Dimple Marks: A Jake Jones Story.
Thank YOU and God bless!
