Hi, I am seeking a skilled individual with a strong command of English (UK) and a passion for science fiction to refine the English translation of my novel (about 44.000 words), originally written in French. The core of this project lies in polishing the existing translation to ensure that it reads fluently and elegantly in English, akin to a native speaker's work, while faithfully preserving the original content and spirit. Key Responsibilities: 1. Proofreading: Thoroughly review the text for any grammatical, syntactical, or typographical errors. 2. Language Enhancement: Elevate the quality of the English translation. The revised text should flow naturally, possess a rich vocabulary, and embody a style befitting a sophisticated sci-fi narrative. It is crucial that these enhancements do not alter the original plot or character development. 3. Punctuation and Formatting: Ensure that all punctuation and formatting align with standard English publication norms, enhancing readability and professional presentation. Ideal Candidate: • Proficiency in English (UK), with a preference for native or near-native English speakers. • Proven experience in literary translation, editing, or a related field. • A deep appreciation for science fiction literature and an understanding of its unique stylistic elements. • Meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to preserving the novel's original tone and content. • Ability to communicate effectively and work collaboratively to bring this project to fruition.

Not only do I have the language skills necessary – being bilingual in Spanish and Catalan – but I am also an experienced English teacher, giving me a unique perspective on the intricacies of English grammar and syntax. Thus, punctuating, formatting and refining your novel to align with native English style will come naturally to me, all while maintaining the authenticity of your original text. Furthermore, my position as a part-time translator for a Valencia-based firm involves translating and proofreading social media posts as well as the 2 science fiction books I have proofread in Freelancer. This means that not only have I grasped professional standards for language use, but I'm also used to working efficiently under tight deadlines which I'm sure you can appreciate will be useful for this project. Sci-fi novels are a favorite genre of mine, and delving into different worlds is something I highly enjoy through words. My appreciation for science fiction combined with my meticulous attention to detail reaffirms my commitment to preserving the essence of your novel in all its beautifully translated glory. With these important traits equipped alongside flawless command of English (UK), I am confident that selecting me would be a beneficial choice for both of us. Thank you for considering my candidacy!
