In January 2019, Howard sold Dundurn Press to a consortium of Canadian technology investors. They hired Kwame Scott Fraser, who became the second publisher in the history of Dundurn Press, and Howard became Publisher Emeritus.[11] Fraser hired acquiring editors Julie Mannell and Russell Smith, and launched a new imprint for literary fiction and memoir called Rare Machines.[12][13]
