Herbert H.

Edited, proofread, and translated books, articles, websites, and promotional material for many years. Detail-oriented and accurate. Well-read especially in health, spirituality, religion, history, fantasy, and young adult fiction. Comments from one author whose book I edited: "the book is definitely far better than its Dutch ancestor. Blushingly awkward paragraphs and chapters have been [edited]....In this way, this new English edition has become the new standard for the book....Also, as soon as one reads a few lines, one is grasped by a very fluent and agreeable versatility, a sympathetic level of English, transforming it into a well-balanced level of accessibility and has to read on. Job v. well done..." Another author whose book I translated wrote to me: "Haben Sie sehr herzlichen Dank für diese vortreffliche und gründliche Arbeit...Sie haben den Sinn des deutschen Textes immer gut erfasst, obwohl meine Sprache nicht immer leicht zu verstehen ist, und es ist Ihnen gelungen, den Inhalt exakt ins Englische zu übertragen. Das ist eine wirklich anerkennenswerte Leistung." ["My very cordial thanks for this excellent and thorough work... You have always grasped the sense of the German text, although my language is not always easy to understand, and you managed to transfer the content exactly into English. This is a really commendable achievement."]
