Translation

of literature and more

Translating literature is not just about transferring a text from one language to another: it is about reimagining a voice, a story, an emotion. And doing so with respect for the original and love for the language it is being translated into.

What does it involve?

I translate literary works from English and Arabic into Spanish, respecting the author's intention and paying close attention to every sentence and turn of phrase. I work closely with publishers and authors to ensure that the result retains its soul. A careful, sensitive and consistent translation that maintains the original voice and respects the text as if it were my own.

HOW DO I WORK?

Getting to know you

Each text has a purpose. Before I start writing I need to know who you are, the clients you’re targeting and what you want to say. Your context is an important part of my writing process.

Writing

I do not use generic sentences or templates, I write original content in your tone of voice that makes sense and meets the expectations of your audience.

Reviewing and adjusting

No text is sent without going through several rounds of review. I make sure everything is clear, coherent and aligned with your identity. You are always welcome to request changes.
