I am having the time of my life, yeah. This has honestly been a great YEAR for gaming (if you like nostalgic JRPGs I guess)

Aaaaaaa YAS! Premodern medicine! Portrayed with respect! Thatโs my college special interest fellas! ๐๐
Pre-modern medicine-people were for sure some of the OG detectives, & even irl achieved way more than most give em credit for!
They were just operating with less information than we have today. ๐ง
Sending positive energy your way!

17.03.2024 22:37 โ ๐ 8 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I actually feel a lot better now after my husband (who is an editor, but not on the book I'm working on) sat down with my draft today and told me every little thing I did wrong. LOL.
14.03.2024 06:30 โ ๐ 15 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0I think what gets to me is knowing that there are definitely translation mistakes that were never caught 'cos the editors don't read Japanese. At ANN, my interviews were always cross-checked by a native JP speaker, and everything I wrote always had SOMETHING to correct, however small.
13.03.2024 23:18 โ ๐ 4 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Well, maybe that's just how it is with me. I've never been satisfied with my work ever. It's why I quit journalism. The voice in my head telling me that I was incompetent never stopped so I listened to it and felt happy when I quit. But it looks like it's gonna happen with every job I ever do.
13.03.2024 22:43 โ ๐ 9 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 5 ๐ 0Um, tbh, I haven't been that satisfied with my translation work so far. I send off my manuscript into the ether and never hear back about it ever. Then I read the final book and hate the sentences I wrote.

13.03.2024 02:15 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0A weird feeling to see my name in a print book. Everything I've ever written/translated up to this point was digital/online-only.
13.03.2024 02:13 โ ๐ 39 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 10 ๐ 0When I was younger, I never bothered listening to reviews because I was like "The only person who can decide whether I enjoy something is ME"
Now I'm older and see the point of maximising my limited free time...even if I am still the ultimate judge of whether I'm having fun...
Spent this weekend catching up on Frieren (fell behind when the mage exam arc started). It's no longer the show it was at the start but I won't complain about the fun action!

It's been too long since I read the Sol Press translation, so I can't compare (not much point now, anyway). But I enjoyed experiencing the story again. The horny parts are just as intense as the battles!
Every time I watch an idol anime, I feel like a basic shonen anime fan cos my weeb power levels aren't high enough to fully appreciate the vibe ๐คฅ

This is where the arc ends right? There's no war or shit afterwards. Kirito, Eugeo, and Alice defeat Administrator, and they all live happily ever after.........right??
