    Hello and buongiorno! (Feel free to contact me in English and/or Italian! — Scrivetemi pure in italiano e/o inglese! E vi prego di darmi del tu!) Thank you for visiting my profile! I'm a professional translator and a novelist. If you search for me on Amazon (Kevan Houser), you'll find some literary translation work I've done, as well as my novel, "Karma's Envoy." Please note: I'm currently working on several long-term projects and pursuing multiple personal interests. This means I am highly selective in the jobs I take on. In fact, I decline the majority of jobs offered, so please don't take offense if I pass on your invitation. If you're looking for a quick, cheap translation, I'm not the right choice for you. I see translation as a creative art, not a mechanical process. I take my time in order to produce an engaging, entertaining, well-written product that sounds like it was originally created in American English, not translated. Rates: (Upwork requires I post an "hourly rate," however, with translation and editing, rates are customarily per word, not per hour.) —Business Translation (Standard Italian to American English): 0.08/Word (8 US cents per word) —Literary Translation (Standard Italian to American English): 0.05/word (5 US cents per word) —Editing: (Improving existing English text to make it sound more natural and professional, which includes some rewriting as needed): 0.03/word (3 US cents per word) —Proofreading: (Fixing spelling, grammar, and style errors without significant rewriting): 0.015/word (one and one-half US cents per word) Here is the sort of work I would consider: 1) Literary translation from Italian to English. (I'm especially interested in science fiction, horror, and other genre literature.) 2) General translation from Italian to English (website content, news articles, blog posts, press releases, etc.) 3) Proofreading and improving existing text to make it sound clearer and more natural in English (this is helpful for those who speak English as a second language and want to be sure their text is free of errors and sounds natural). **Please note: I am an American, and as a professional translator I only translate into my native language. I don't translate into Italian. No matter how well one learns a second language, it's hard to write it with the style, flair, and precision of a talented native speaker. That's why translators only translate into their native language, and why you'll get the very best, most natural-sounding Italian text if you hire a professional Italian translator for your English to Italian work. ABOUT ME: I am a native speaker of American English with decades of Italian experience. I attended a university in Perugia, Italy in 1984, and earned a BA in Italian in 1994 here in the US. I am fascinated by languages in general and have studied several. I continue to improve my reading ability in Spanish and French, and have a decent knowledge of Portuguese and German as well. My current obsession is learning Turkish. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask! (Resto a disposizione per qualsiasi ulteriore chiarimento!) Thanks again for visiting my profile and good luck with your project! Best wishes, Kevan

Cannabis-related businesses/projects are also welcome. Please reach out if you're unsure. I'm happy to chat candidly with you about any potential project. I look forward to the chance to collaborate with you, infusing your project with integrity, innovation, and a touch of magic.

    Gathering experience from a variety of different backgrounds, I thrive on details. My expertise is in inventory management and planning, but I also like to keep track of the big picture in order to find efficiencies that make the whole operation run more smoothly. Inventory management has taught me a great deal about how to consider, prioritize, organize, and reconcile big sets of data using a variety of different tools, without losing sight of the small details. My strengths include writing, editing, data management, inventory reconciliation, basic accounting, product catalog management, spreadsheet management, and general operations and organizational skills. As an operations specialist, I am comfortable collaborating across different departments (customer service, supply chain, finance, product development, marketing) to make sure projects are consistently moving forward. My work experience has taken me through a variety of different industries, sometimes with steep learning curves, but I look forward to taking on new types of tasks and making them part of my wheel house. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions regarding my experience or work history.

    I’ve been a book nerd for as long as I can remember. My mother was a librarian so I spent countless hours exploring the stacks in search of hidden knowledge. An intrepid researcher, I figured out the card catalog and Dewey decimal system to help me find all the secrets I craved. These days, my research techniques have evolved, but some things haven’t changed. I am always surrounded by piles of books and I lose hours researching my latest obsessions. How does this translate to my work? I know that information, presented in the right way, can captivate. From books to articles, blog posts to newsletters, everything I write is focused on the reader's experience. And that experience begins even before they land on the content I’m creating — because to read it, they need to find it. That means I’ve had to get savvy with everything from SEO best practices to social media marketing to make sure my audience finds what I have to offer. As a full-time freelancer, relationship building has been essential to my success. I rely on individuals and organizations having a good experience working with me, such that they will return to collaborate again and again. That means I make sure to clearly understand the scope and requirements of the project, take budgets and deadlines seriously, and promptly incorporate any feedback and edits into my work. SKILLS SUMMARY •Clear and engaging writing that connects with readers. •Ability to convey feeling and emotion. •Creates reader-focused content, tailored to the desired outcome. •Detail-oriented and able to meet deadlines. •Attention to project requirements and content standards for each client. •Skilled at finding and interviewing sources. •Experienced storyteller, from the page to the stage. •Remote work with local and international clients.

    You need a story with characters and plotlines that leap off the page. You need a tale that will make your readers want more. That is where I come in. As a writer and storyteller, I consider intriguing dialogue and compelling narratives to be the fabric of my job description. No matter what type of writing project I am entrusted with, fiction or non-fiction, I seek to infuse each word I write with uniqueness, utilizing a style that will hook the reader from the very start, keeping him engaged until the final phrase. I have spent the majority of my freelancing life ghostwriting fiction in a variety of genres. The bulk of my experience lies with clients I’ve had the pleasure of working with through Upwork, seeing their writing jobs through to completion. Additionally, I’ve completed many projects with independent clients in the realms of both writing (bringing the stories they want to tell to life) and developmental editing (smoothing out plotline wrinkles and enhancing the quality of rough-draft works). I also hold the position of a Senior Writer with StoryTerrace. RATES: My rate is 0.10 cents per word for ghostwriting My rate is 0.09 cents for outlining. From western romances to paranormal shapeshifters to contemporary and mysteries, I am prepared to fulfill your writing needs. Creativity is my middle name, so leave that to me, I've got it handled. Please note that I DO NOT write anything of a 'steamy' or graphic nature. High energy and high emotion scenes, yes, steamy, no. I look forward to working with you! ****** Sierra Mullins has been fulfilling the fiction and non-fiction writing as well as developmental editing needs of her clients professionally since 2014. Seeing to the creation of high-quality content alongside strict deadlines is her line of work and the products of her creativity receive accolades from her clients and readers alike. Writing is not the only area of Sierra's life that keeps her immersed in the world of creativity. Her 10 year study of classical ballet, which she now teaches, and her study of cultural salsa dancing provide her with an additional connection to all things artistic. Through these additional connections to the artistic realm, she has had the opportunity to bring to life the biographies, experiences, and visions of the professional dancers she trains under. Due to the satisfaction of her clients, she has maintained her Top Rated Status consistently for years on Upwork. During this time, she has completed countless jobs in areas such as: Mail Order Bride, Contemporary Romance, Cozy Mystery, Thriller, Paranormal Shapeshifter, Amish, Non-Fiction Coffee Writing, and Article Writing. Sierra views her creative writing skills as a shareable commodity, a service that she can offer in order to turn the hopes and ideas of her clients into a reality of living color before their eyes. If you'd like to contact Sierra about a job please send her a proposal and include the words "Here Are My Writing Needs" at the top of your proposal so that she will know you read her profile thoroughly. Any proposal missing these words will not be considered.
