D. A. (Dan) Cunningham

Hello! Let me introduce myself. I am the eleventh child (seventh son) of British immigrants to Australia. Proudly Australian, I live with my wife in a city called Wollongong on the East coast of Australia.

Growing up saw an existence that involved hand me downs and a mother who was proud that she could get one hot meal on the plate each day. I feel that these humble beginnings, and my struggle to get to where I am today, created a worldliness that helps me devise realistic characters.

English was not my favorite subject at school, helped by teachers insisting that I could not write to save my life. I preferred the certainty of mathematics and science and hence pursued a career in electrical engineering.

I only became interested in writing novels at the start of 2012 and now follow this passion full-time. Writing allows me to exercise a creativity that I never thought I had.

If you want to really make me happy, let me pat your dog.
