About Me

Desiree Cunin is published!!!

I write fantasy/sci-fi novels and a smattering of poetry. To visit my website, sign the guestbook, read excerpts and check on new releases, click www.desicuninbooks.com Check out the downloads page for book excerpts.
To purchase Book 1 of the Perceptions Trilogy, click The Potentate
Also, please bug anybody else you know who should be reading my stuff. (In case you need clarification, that means everyone in the whole of creation and Canada.) I spread by word-of-mouth (sort of like influenza), so I need the help of devoted fans to start a pandemic.

Please note: ALL BOOKS AND EXCERPTS ARE SUBJECT TO COPYRIGHT LAWS. For reprint rights, contact me at [email protected] to all of you who have been reading and bugging me! Here is the synopsis for my first trilogy: Perceptions.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet other insufferable know-it-alls who enjoy academic "discussions" - ie, heated arguments with plenty of name-calling and references to other peoples' moms. And if possible, I would like to meet George Clooney. He is numbers 4 and 6 on my list of things to do before I stage my own death to boost book sales.

In a stunning turn of events, Desiree B. Cunin, AKA The Four-Legged Fish, has finally cancelled herself out. In the beginning, the Word was with Fish and the Fish was a tree-hugging hippie. Whosoever ...
