Tough Poets Press Please don’t normalize AI translations.
Nobody wants that. If a reader spends their money n time buying n reading what you publish only to find out a soulless computer did the translation they’ll feel robbed n wronged. It’s pretty gross. Just pay a human being? Is that so hard ?
❄️And hold onto your hat for some BLOCKBUSTER #NordicNoir with the return of Jørn Lier Horst and Thomas Enger international BESTSELLING Blix & Ramm #series ❄️
🌲Proof copies of #Stigma tr Megan Turney HAVE LANDED at Casa Orenda!
