I work as a professional technical writer for a company you definitely know. I have a Master's degree in English. My native language is Danish.

Honestly, technical writing isn't very much about writing. I'm just a document office monkey and shuffle (digital) papers around. When I translate, which isn't that often, it's rarely very much. Most of my job consists of updating existing documents and making sure that whatever the engineers (or someone else) wrote doesn't sound fucking stupid, and can be understood by the people working in production (i.e. no fancy words).

It's a good job, but it's not really inspiring or creative at all. My contract ends soon and I'm hoping to pursue a PhD.

I'd like to do some Norwegian, but I don't know the language.

How do you get into book translation?

probably try translating something and send out samples of your work

does anyone know of a French novel (300ish pages or less) that needs a good translation (or a translation, period) into english? I'm pretty willing to make a professional effort.
