Follow a dream... Nov 30, 2017

Translate just enough to pay the bills, and dedicate the rest of my working hours to writing, which I hope will eventually turn profitable.

I stopped revising, editing, and proofreading several years ago. This year I made the mistake of accepting a revision job and regretted it immediately.

More proofreading, revising, editing, and translation Dec 1, 2017

And I also would like to acquire more clients. This year was not bad, but next year will be even better.
