Thanks to her entry in the Editor’s Canada Online Directory of Editors, Editors Atlantic member Virginia (Ginny) McGowan was headhunted and offered a position with a unique enterprise at the University of Guelph: she is now the lead editor of The Groundwater Project. This project is part of the Morwick G360 Groundwater Research Institute, a global initiative.
The GW-Project’s mandate is to democratize knowledge about groundwater by publishing—free, online and in multiple languages—books written by the world’s foremost groundwater experts. The contributors represent more than 1,000 volunteers from across the globe. There are dozens of books already published and hundreds more in preparation.
Ginny is still working with her private clients, specializing in non-fiction, mostly academic works.
