  • >Award Recipient, September 2025: For his prose piece "Lionheart" (an excerpt from his next book), Cunningham was named the Grand Prize Winner in the 2025 Clarissa Dalloway Prize. He receives a cash award and publication in L'Esprit Literary Review, Issue 7 (autumn 2025). An annual award promoting innovative work that looks to the legacy of Virginia Woolf, the Clarissa Dalloway Prize seeks "risk-adept, language-driven writing crafted in a revolutionary spirit" and "welcome[s] pieces that challenge convention in form, style, and/or content, and which invite us to think differently about the world."
  • >Published December 2024: Cunningham's novel The Green Age of Asher Witherow, in a Special 20th Anniversary Edition from Atelier26 Books. Order copies HERE.
  • >Published autumn 2023: Cunningham's new book We Are Guests of Ancient Time: Essays & Variations on the Imagination, Memory, Seeing & Media.​ Learn more HERE.
  • >Podcasting: Cunningham's podcasts In the Atelier and Thoreau's Leaves offer creative inspiration. Idiosyncratic new audio content is also occasionally added to his eponymous author podcast. Recent additions include a creative writing lecture on "Reading, Seeing, & Self-Forgetting" and audio from one of Cunningham's appearances at Powell's Books.
