Fascinating. I wish you were also a Spanish proficient editor. I've been writing my dream novel for the last two years… would appreciate someone like you to edit it.

Yeah I'm afraid I'm English only. My knowledge of Spanish is limited to two years of Spanish I took in College...a long time ago.

@@ryanhallwrites thanks for your response. You know, I’ve been thinking lately that it may be possible to find someone, an English writer who would be willing to do some sort of editing of a translated novel. My English is good enough to write most things, even a science masters thesis for a geology project more than 20 years ago. So, the idea is that I put the novel into English, then someone with the appropriate skills set will edit it. It would be a lot of work for me though, to grasp all the literary elements like voice, metaphoric stuff, etc. But it may be worthwhile. What do you think?

This was a huge help. I'm shocked to see such less subscribers even after such good content. What shocked me more is that you keep uploading since years even after having just plenty of views. How do u do it ? What keeps u motivated ?

To be fair, this channel has been rather dormant for years. I finally decided to bring it back. Keep watching and keep coming back!
