  Great when your book gets audio format.

  - I'm really lucky to get opportunity to release first of my books as audio-book. It not English, but still it's a big step to make story more friendly for future readers or listeners. Before it was only one short story. Need to test how good auto-translation works with it...

  Awfull one and a half year.

  - I still trying to make better translate. But still lack of knowledge make translation not so well as I wish it. Aside of really rough constructions there many thin meaning which hard to make understandable. Like some words play or jokes around some sentences and situation. But there some good news also - first of my book become audio! And I really happy about that!

  3. I fix how dialogue looks.
  4. Make a few tweaks in a whole.

  A little tryout of translation...

  Well, at last I started my translation experiments to make story affordable to readers. Besides word to word translation I also try some "auto-translate" with some in context tweaks and changes. But still result seems bad. Really bad. So it no good even for rough 1st step translation ether. Sad, but I need to try it too before start.
