Report from  Kerstin Knepper
Thanks everyone for coming to this well-attended powwow (if I've missed anyone off the attendance list, please feel free to email me via Proz). After a round of "who am I" interspersed by questions and answers, Florence initiated a discussion about proofreading / revising / editing. Some fundamental questions were answered, and we will put together our notes to a brief guideline document for all attendees. Thanks again to Florence for sharing her ideas on this crucial topic with all of us!!

It looks like "how to market yourself as a translator" is a burning issue for many of us, so we will probably focus our next powwow on that. As usual, if anyone would like to email me their ideas with regards to this or other topics, I'd be most grateful.

I won't be able to hold a powwow in June, so if anyone else would like to organise one for June, please feel free. Otherwise there'll probably be one in July, but I can't confirm the date yet - keep an eye on the page and notifications.


Best wishes,
Kerstin

Postings from ProZians who attended this event

Jul 31 '10  Kerstin Knepper: September powwow
Hello people, I\'ve been unable to organise a summer powwow but have my eye on 18 September, so do keep a lookout for that, to be confirmed later on in August. Of course anyone can organise a powwow in the meantime, do feel free!
Jul 31 '10  Renata Forgacs: Looking forward to seeing you all...
Especially that I was unable to go to the last get-together in May, I\'m looking forward to seeing you soon!
Jul 31 '10  N Andersson: London meets
I for one would really welcome a new meet soon, and regular meets after that. :)
Jul 30 '10  Natalia Mackevich: We can have both...
1 in August, 1 in September etc. For example, every last Saturday of the month (it\'s been suggested before).
Jul 30 '10  Natalia Mackevich: London, August powwow
August sounds great! Same venue? Let\'s ask Kerstin.
Jul 30 '10  Ernestine Shargool: Re: Next?
1st week in September (being selfish, I\'m away in August)?
Jul 30 '10  Steve Poynter: Re: Next?
Freaky, I was just thinking the same thing!
How about mid-August or late August?
Jul 30 '10  Natalia Mackevich: Next?
So when is the next London powwow, colleagues? Any ideas?
May 16 '10  Flo in London: Thanks Kerstin :-)
Many thanks Kerstin for organising another well attended powwow!

Thanks also to all for your great input on proof-reading. As discussed, Kerstin & I will combine our notes and email all attendees a summary of what was discussed/agreed on.
