    My Like message on Facebook–on my personal page & also my American Older Brother page on “language stuff!”–
    Anything Corinne writes/does is SICK (“sick” = Undergrad-Speak for “cool,” “wonderful” and so forth!). I’ve taken her courses and read her books and her blog and Corinne rocks! What Holly Mikkelson–my Court & Medical Interpreting instructor at the Monterey Institute of International Studies–does for her field, Corinne McKay does for the business of translation. If you want to be a freelance translator or if you are one already, buy her book(s) and take her courses, hooah?

      Yes, definitely. I’ll probably have to make some small changes after I go over the advance copies, but once the book is on Amazon, there will be a Kindle edition.

    Congratulations, Corinne! I’m so glad you made the announcement… I was about to buy the second edition. Any idea as to when will the third be available on Amazon?

      Thank you! I will have some copies for sale at ATA56, and then maybe two weeks to get on Amazon? Depends on how fast it filters through their system.

        Will this book be a textbook for your courses?

    Thanks for your enthusiasm! Unfortunately it takes a long time (6-8 weeks) for it to get into the retail distribution network; plus it was delayed because of a couple of incorrect URLs that the Portuguese translator found in the Resources, and I hate typos… However the second edition has now been retired and the third edition is making its way to Amazon. If you are really dying to have it (again, thanks!) you can buy it directly from the publisher: http://www.lulu.com/shop/corinne-mckay/how-to-succeed-as-a-freelance-translator-third-edition/paperback/product-22482776.html
