Doujin translation

[sparkeyhamster.livejournal.com]

 I have a lot of doujins in Japanese that I can't understand. Of course I will pay to have them translated but can't find anyone. Any body out there interested?

Depends on money, inclusion of Nordics, and timeframe.

If you were okay with, say, the first ones being translated 6 weeks from now (i.e. after my finals), we might be able to talk.

I've got one with the Nordics in. I'm kind of new to this, so I don't know how much I should pay, but I'm not really rich. If you could give me a price by page maybe.
I could pay by paypal. Of course it might be a while before I can get them to you anyway because I'm not getting any pocket money for a bit.

Actually, I'm sorry, but I think I should probably retract this offer for now in light of the other poster and my current abilities.

If you still have things you want translated on June 1, though, or it doesn't work out with kswgric, please let me know. I'd have to probably do a quote based on material, and I'd be charging cheaper due to not owning any sort of typesetting program.

Just FYI, my current rate seems to be about 8-9 pages of Nordics per hour, and I'd probably be charging something between 5-15 dollars per hour, depending on other conditions. Simply speaking, I'd prefer more of a quality-based pricing than a page-based.

Er, and I translated almost the entire artbook in 5 hours or so, so I guess that gives you an idea of the relative speeds. I'm not super-fast, but I like to think that I'm pretty accurate in general.

Anyway, maybe some other time, but right now I don't want to promise you anything because my coursework is really exploding.

Don't worry I understand. I have a lot of course work and exams coming up to.
