Article on Selecting a Translator Published in PMA Independent
Nora Stevens Heath, who translated two stories for our well-received Lairs of the Hidden Gods series, and I wrote an article entitled "How to Hire a Translator" for the June 2008 issue of the PMA Independent, the newsletter of the Independent Book Publishers Association of America.
