I'm the author of the epic fantasy series, The Riyria Revelations. I'm in the process of having the work translated from English to Italian. Since I don't know Italian (or anyone who does), I won't know how good of a job the translator did. Quality of my work is very important to me, so I want someone to double check or proof the transslator. What I need is someone who can read Italian to go through the translation and verify that it "reads well." If there are some areas that seem odd or off, I need those passages highlighted so I can go back to the translator. The book is about 90,000 words long (350 pages).

Dear MJSullivan, Thank you for inviting me to bid on your very interesting project, as I am also a fan of fantasy novels. I am afraid, though, that your budget is far too low for a quality professional editing/proofing job. You should consider that even if the translation is of high quality, performing a decent proofing/editing it is going to take a minimum of 30/40 hours. If you send me a little sample of the translation (2/3 pages) I could check the quality of the translation and make a more accurate bid. Hoping to hear from you soon. Kindest regards, Mara
