Benjamin Rempel is a Canadian writer and essayist. Widely published, his work has appeared in The Toronto Star, Our Canada, Blank Spaces, Streetlight, Fifteen Stories High Anthology, among others. 

Celebrated for his dark and gritty tone, his fiction has been nominated for several honours including shortlisted for the 2023 Georgian Bay Story Slam and the 2019 Rising Spirts Writing Award. His first novel, INFECT, was released in June 2024 through Chicken House Press.

When not writing, you will find Benjamin hiking with his terrier, cheering on his kids in after-school sports, and supporting local charities. Although his writing tends to be creepy, his wife will tell you he has a soft spot for public libraries, farmer’s markets, and gets right giddy over marvel movies.

A graduate of the University of Waterloo, Rempel has worked for non-profits since 2004. He lives in Collingwood, Ontario, with his family.
