abstract: In his will, the adventurer David McLean arranges for each of his seven grandsons a different task that takes him to locations around the world. Seven the Series, published by Orca Book Publishers, brings together the boys' stories, and the work of Canadian young adult writers Eric Walters, John Wilson, Ted Staunton, Richard Scrimger, Norah McClintock, Sigmund Brouwer, and Shane Peacock. Founded in 1982, Orca Book's main warehouse and editorial offices are based in Victoria in British Columbia, Canada. The independent publisher has brought numerous Canadian writers to global attention. Since its publication, over 100,000 copies of Seven the Series have been sold. In what follows, the seven writers share with us their views about the project, their writing processes, their child characters, the larger aims of their individual novels, and how they fit into the larger project. For synopses of the seven books, please refer to www.orcabook.com/seventheseries. The series continues with The Seven Sequels, which will be published on 1 October 2014.
