2013 – the year of translators
8 Jan 2013 | No Comments | posted by Megan Onions | in Uncategorized
On my daily browse through the translation blogosphere, I came across the latest post by Marta at Want Words , which suggests a three-point plan for improving on 2012 and making this year your best ever:
*Identify what you didn’t like about 2012
*Find the reasons for the things you didn’t like about 2012
*Have a plan of how to fix it
I side with Marta here in resenting the rates proposed by some clients, and their payment terms. However, we are in control of what we accept and what we choose to reject. The ability to control my working conditions and reputation is one of my favourite things about my chosen career. Let’s all make this the year of the translator.

Megan’s proofreading has been very beneficial to me. I appreciate her accurate linguistic knowledge of English, and especially her stylistic recommendations.
