Lynne Melcombe (Editors British Columbia) published her first book, No Such Thing: A True Story of “Mild” Traumatic Brain Injury and My Twenty-Year (so far) Recovery, in August 2026 with Iguana Books. A braided memoir, No Such Thing blends the story of an allegedly mild concussion and subsequent efforts to heal; research into mild traumatic brain injury, chronic pain and depression; information about how personal injury law works (or doesn’t); and the impacts of all of that on the life of an individual and her family.

Lorna Stuber (Editors Calgary) published a memoir, Going with the Floe, in August 2026. A lifelong literary devotion leads travel and humour writer Lorna Stuber to the annual Iceland Writers Retreat, where her favourite author, award-winning Canadian writer Will Ferguson, is presenting. Through her exploration of Iceland and Greenland, Lorna develops a great appreciation for the lifestyles and landscapes of the North while laughing at and rolling with the absurdities that arise when well-laid plans collide with illness, injury and unpredictable weather.
