The Dundurn Blog
As one of the pillars of a good story, setting deserves as much attention as character and plot, but is often overlooked in favour of hurried references to generic or made-up locations. For me, it is like the setting of a precious gem; the perfect backdrop against which the story unfolds, allowing just the right light, colour, and reflection to make the story come alive. Each scene, as well as the overall story, should be anchored in place so that the reader feels a part of the drama.
Dundurn Press Unveils New Branding and Mission
In our 49th year, we are excited to announce that Dundurn Press has rebranded and revitalized its mandate. Our fresh, new look seeks to recognize and honour Dundurn’s history, while signaling a change in the vision of the press, following the sale of the company in 2019.
Award-winning short story writer and author of two novels for adults, Brent van Staalduinen brings us a powerful YA debut that sheds light on a story that is commonly left untold. In Nothing but Life, we follow the story of Dills whose memories are raw from the day a shooter came into his school library and opened fire. He struggles to talk about the day, but most of all, he struggles to come to terms with the stepfather he loves who has committed the crime. We asked Brent to share some insight into the making of Nothing but Life:

Book Description:
“A brilliant instruction manual on how to find purpose, build a career, and live a life of fulfillment for anyone aspiring to success in work and society.” – DEEPAK CHOPRA
A surefire guide to planning your next career move and discovering the job you really want.
Jennifer Turliuk was dissatisfied in her corporate job, so she quit. But she had no idea what to do next. After university, she, like so many graduates, focused on just getting a job rather than figuring out the career she really wanted. Yet how would she even begin to find out what exactly that would be?
