in Real-life translators (5 Qs)

I’ll be starting a new series of occasional posts called 5 Qs with, where I’ll ask five questions of different people in the industry and then post their responses here for your delectation.

I must admit, I’ve been toying around with this for ages – over 18 months to be precise. In fact, ever since I saw a similar series by the excellent Urban Muse and got her blessing and advice on running a translator-specific series of my own.

The first post will appear next week – here’s hoping they’re as fun to read as they are to do!

I think it would be great if you could interview someone from Common Sense Advisory since they would bring an interesting perspective of the industry as a whole.
