Maybe that&#39;s me!<br/><br/>I translate from Swedish, French, Norwegian and Danish into English (mainly UK but US possible depending on the text - I also work with a USian translator as a team where required). I&#39;m a full Member of the Institute of Translation and Interpreting for both Swedish and French.<br/><br/>I&#39;m also an Intermediate Member of the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading – in other words, I offer proofreading/editing/copyediting services too.<br/><br/>Oh, and copywriting!<br/><br/>I work on everything from press releases through sustainability reports to novels. Particularly fond of archaeology/history (got to get use from my MA somehow) and personal development, but really I&#39;m interested in almost everything and translation allows me to be a nerd about all kinds of things. <br/><br/>The subjects I *don&#39;t* do are legal, financial and medical.<br/><br/>#comissionsopen <br/>#getfedihired <br/>#translation <br/>#copywriting <br/>#proofreading <br/>#editing <br/>#archaeology <br/>#PersonalDevelopment <br/><br/>I feel like this needs a pic, so here are two of my three cats looking comfy (if a bit warm).<br/> <img src="https://media.beige.party/media_attachments/files/114/757/412/878/355/573/original/9da3ca9d3caa6544.jpg"> <br/> 2025-06-27T23:21:20+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqswadjmrmauljzcve706y266qcufew2fktjrazcym9ehumutu0zmvgzyr4qpjep37kahpewrfwjvfckryuuxsf9gdgc6hacldpf93jna4867zluqzf I&#39;m really loving how Mastodon has become a refuge for all the grizzled seafarers on the ocean of the internet. They pop up in my feed and their bios all say something like<br/><br/>&#34;I&#39;ve been online for longer than the internet. I&#39;ve seen things you people wouldn&#39;t believe. 56k modems on fire in the light of Usenet. I watched IRC forks glitter in the dark near the Gateway 3000. All those moments will be lost in slop, like tears in rain. Time to deshittify.&#34;<br/><br/>From my original profile:<br/><br/><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/@Janeishly/114235187781140336">https://mastodonapp.uk/@Janeishly/114235187781140336</a> 2025-06-11T18:31:11+02:00
