    - If you already are a good author, if you have published a very successful book.. Why not translating it in other foreign languages and open a much wider market??

    We are looking for good authors that have stories they would like to see published in other foreign languages. We would really like to translate some good stories .

    Any type of story will be considered. Please submit samples to this email address or contact me for more information.

    For more info, please contact me on: seawolfrench@yahoo.com

    see you soon..

    Interesting... what do you charge?

    Many thanks for your answer..

    As a writer myself, I would not charge the same expenses than a specialised translating agency, but I need some compensation for my work.. :-)

    I will suggest two possibilities:

    1°) the first one, the most traditional system: cost related to the number of words..

    2°) a payment in the form of percentage of the publishing royalties.
    This last formula has the advantage of not making any risk to the author, no investment before the translated books are sold.

    3°) I remain open to any other proposal..
