Brand "X" , and ACME, poems and stories. Surreal, sappy, funny, horrific, and human.
Lee Dunn has been writing since the age of 18, but found that work got in the way for the ensuing 48 years. In his home town of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, he reveled in his independence at an early age, and spent as much time as he could exploring the city’s Arts scene. He was introduced to poetry and prose by the works of two literary giants, namely J.R.R. Tolkien and J.W. Lennon and thence fell in love with the written word.

He has been published on Spillwords.com, Crepe & Penn Literary magazine, and the Shelburne Free Press.
