Thoughts on Translation, by Corinne McKay

One of the first blogs on translation I found is THOUGHTS ON TRANSLATION by translator Corinne McKay.

Corinne McKay translates English<>French. She is American and has been in the world of freelance translation for several years now. Her blog contains advice as well as thoughts on the world of translation and, more specifically, on the process of becoming a freelance. She has written a book on that process, How to succeed as a freelance translator, and offers an online course from her website, Translatewrite.com .

Apart from her blog, she broadcasts a podcast, Speaking on Translation along with Eve Bodeux, also related to the world of translation and translators. All this in English, obviously.

Corinne's blog is one of the first I started to follow on a regular basis, and there is always some surprising post on aspects of freelance translation world which is worth having into account.

Where shall I begin?

there is a whole lot of doubt who turn up when taking up something important. So many, that one doesn't know where to begin.

A quick search in the internet is, as usual, scary, since there is such a profusio of results: thousands of links which match your searching criteria.

After redefining my search once and again and again, after hopping from blog to blog, from website to website, I have a list of the most recurrent. They are blogs, sites, magazines, etc., in which I have found interesting information which helps me with an outline of goals, procedures, schedules, and such.

Apart from mentioning them in different posts, I will be adding them to a list of interesting blogs, which may come in handy.
