My time as a writer

Who Is Jordan Hawkey?

Jordan Hawkey is an author based in Adelaide, South Australia who openly shares that he lives with epilepsy—an inspiring detail that speaks volumes about his resilience.

His Literary Magic: Twins of Legend Series

He's the imaginative creator of the Twins of Legend series—a middle‑grade fantasy saga that stars two meerkat twins, Pan and Samson. Their world gets turned upside down when their town is attacked by snakes, thrusting them into a high-stakes quest involving powers, a secretive brother named Jackie, and a mysterious disc that holds everything together. The story unfolds across at least three books:

• Book 1: The Disc of Power – The thrilling introduction to the twins' epic journey

• Book 2: The Vault of Souls – They return home, but new dangers lurk in a hidden vault that could spell disaster

• Book 3: Invasion of the Isles – With chapter teasers like “Fighting in the Field”, the adventure continues to escalate 

Interactive Universe: Ghonsor’s Lore

Jordan doesn't just stop at books—he’s also building a rich lore called “History of Ghonsor,” where fans can explore short stories about characters like King Mirthrid and uncover hidden histories of the land where the meerkats roam.

From His Pen to the Community

Not only does he write, but he also shares his craft—hosting writing workshops like the one held in January 2025 at the Gawler Civic Centre, where he helped aspiring writers learn about storytelling, character development, editing, and even publishing and marketing strategies.

Why He’s So Cool

• Creative world-building with adventurous meerkat heroes who capture hearts and imaginations.

• Community champion, empowering emerging writers with real-world advice.

• A personal narrative of strength, living openly with epilepsy and channeling that into his art.
