Stephanie Watterson (Editors British Columbia) has published a children’s book, Septopus. The book is available for purchase online through Amazon and Indigo.
Three Editors Canada members were recently profiled in a 30th anniversary brochure from PLAIN (the Plain Language Association International). Those members are Iva Cheung (Editors British Columbia), Greg Ioannou (Editors Toronto) and Gael Spivak (Editors Ottawa–Gatineau). The brochure, called “Celebrating 30 Years with 30 Members,” highlights the work of 30 plain language practitioners from around the world.
PLAIN was started by two Canadians: Cheryl Stephens and Kate Harrison Whiteside. While it started as a Canadian organization, it grew into an international group that strongly advocates for plain language writing and editing. Editors Canada has had a long relationship with PLAIN and supports its work. And two Editors Canada members are on PLAIN’s current board of directors: Nicole Watkins Campbell (Editors Atlantic) and Michelle Waitzman (Editors Toronto).
