Conference Prep for Literary Translators

Fall is conference season for translators, and literary translators are often called upon to speak about their work and the work of the authors they translate. Before heading off to ATA or ALTA this year, take an opportunity to practice your presentation by previewing it for your local colleagues. Past, future, or imaginary conference presentations are also welcome. Not going to a translation conference this fall? Come experience a condensed version, no plane ticket required.

Write to Katie King if you'd like to get on the mini-program for this event. 

Featured speakers include:

• Leland Ross (Ros' Haruo) on Shakespeare in translation

• Lola Rogers on Johanna Sinisalo and Finnish literature in the US
• Paul Norlen on a topic to be disclosed
• Katie King on promoting self-published translations

Please note: this is our first event in Folio's new location in Pike Place Market.

The Northwest Literary Translators, part of the Northwest Translators and Interpreters Society, meet the third Thursdays of most months at Folio, the Seattle Athenaeum. For more information, join our Facebook group.
