French Romance Novel Translation
Budget: $250 – $750 AUD
I have a French storybook of well over 100 pages that I want rendered into natural, elegant Spanish for an adult readership. The plot is firmly rooted in romance, so the translation must preserve the nuanced emotions, subtle humor, and mature tone of the original without sounding forced or literal.
What I expect:
• A complete Spanish manuscript in Word or Google Docs, matching the layout and chapter breaks of the French file.
• Fluid, idiomatic dialogue that feels authentically Spanish while staying faithful to the author’s voice.
• Consistent terminology for character names, places, and recurring motifs; include a short glossary if needed.
• A light editorial pass—spelling, grammar, and punctuation already polished—so the text is publication-ready.
Please let me know your estimated timeline and share a brief sample of similar literary translations you’ve done. If shortlisted, I’ll provide a short excerpt; returning it in Spanish will help confirm style alignment.
I’m looking to move ahead quickly and value clear, prompt communication throughout the project.
