About Anne
Anne Hawkinson was born in Duluth, Minnesota.  The world’s largest inland port became her “window to the world” when ships from around the globe crossed under the Aerial Bridge and docked in Lake Superior’s harbor. Years later she’d visit the countries that at one time existed only in her imagination.  Bedtime stories read by her father were a nighttime ritual – her favorite was “The Teeny Tiny Woman.”  Because they lived near the zoo, she often fell asleep to the sound of roaring African lions.  

Anne graduated from St. Cloud State University with a Master’s degree and has a daughter, a son, and an endless parade of pets that provide unending inspiration for her children’s stories.  Anne would like to thank her writing coach and editor Jamie Morris.

Current Project   
Anne is working on a middle-grade mystery titled, The Mystery at Moz Hollow Readers following the adventure will be able to log onto the same website as the characters in the story! 

Synopsis:  Eleven year-old Maggie travels with her mother and her friend Laura to a Gothic mansion in northern Minnesota that has been transformed into a movie set.  An unexpected discovery pulls Maggie and Laura into the secrets of the mansion and its last living family member.  Can they solve the mystery before time runs out?
