I’m going to be off Twitter after today.
I will keep this account live so that I can still be DM’d if you need something and can't reach me any other way, but won’t be using it otherwise.
I don't know why I wrote "so far", though. Surely now is when I get to retire? It would mean I couldn't then get the 2033 prize @mervatim promised me, but you can't have everything.
Thank you for the lovely tweets, calls & messages about this. And thank you to the great @wwborders for the honor. But mostly, thank you to those many friends with whom I've collaborated on these things, all of whose work enabled all of mine. Very proud of what we've done so far.
Daniel Hahn, the award-winning writer, editor, translator, and translation advocate, will receive the 2023 Ottaway Award for the Promotion of International Literature, Words Without Borders announced today. (1/8)

Hope to see many of you somewhere three-dimensional before too long. Currently making many travel plans (all over the U.K. in June, and beyond - Paris, Greece, etc. - as soon thereafter as seems responsible), in order to do just that. Keep well meantime.
@Joannechocolat (Have been meaning to escape for several months but wanted to get this translation diary finished first, so I could spread the word as it developed. But free, as of today!)
@Joannechocolat Thanks, Joanne. Yes, all fine, and expecting to be even better when no longer on here. Look forward to seeing you in the real world soon.
We're now recruiting for the next two dates (14 September & 12 October) in our series of one-day online workshops in literary translation, in association with @bcltuea.
