Dear WriteByNighter,
My good pal Ian Singleton, author of Two Big Differences, is offering a three-part Zoom class on translation, not only between languages but within a language as well.
In other words, you don't need to be a translator, or even speak/write in a different language, to learn and enjoy!
In Session 1 (May 14, 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. Eastern) you'll discuss techniques for interlingual
translation and how to apply those techniques to any brand of creative writing.
Session 2 (May 21, 7-8) looks at intralingual translation -- aka editing/revision, how to focus on synonyms, syntax. Lessons we can all use!
Session 3 (May 28, 7-8) is a discussion on semiotic translation: "translation between visual and linguistic communication, between images and language."
You can sign up for any individual discussion for
$100, or all three for $250 total. If interested, you can contact Ian directly or reply to this email and I'll arrange it for you.
