My experience may be different, but it is in comparing our situations and thinking about the similarities and differences that I'll find the best approach for <I>me</I>. Moreover, he covers most of the basics very well for internationally focused translators.<br /><br />I think the September BDÜ conference sounds good; I definitely plan to attend. Keep me posted on your plans. Maybe we'll do a Stammtisch around that time too.Kevin Lossnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14727800526216764023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20155610.post-63834985910750818622009-05-03T10:20:00.000+01:002009-05-03T10:20:00.000+01:00Hello you 2,
Kevin, your review of Oleg's book is...Hello you 2,<br /><br />Kevin, your review of Oleg's book is quite interesting. He just sent me this review link as I had just written to him to ask him if he had a blog and was interested in networking.<br /><br />I have to confess that I have not read any books on "how-to" about translation, since I basically learned what (little) I know about freelancing by pure newbie experience. <br /><br />But reading your review, Kevin, I think it may never be too late to read such books, because obviously business nowadays is definitely affected by all kinds of new technological advances, so these books may always come in handy to keep updated.<br /><br />On the other hand, I wish to return to Berlin one of these days, so I may consider the September BDÜ conference, as it sounds really interesting. If you are interested, it would be a great opportunity to meet you both. Let's play it by ear.<br /><br />Enjoy your Sunday (though rather hazy/partly cloudy here in Wiesbaden, it's rather nice, so it looks like a day for outdoor activities, away from the PC, though I wanted first to write this short message here... :-) ),<br /><br />Ivette<br />http://lapsustranslinguae.wordpress.com/ICLhttp://lapsustranslinguae.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20155610.post-2960694362786215422009-02-05T08:59:00.000+00:002009-02-05T08:59:00.000+00:00The conference in September?

You choose the place and I cover the bill, OK? <BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/>OlegAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
