@DrInterpreter

I definitely think this is a topic we will discuss, since I know several of the panelists (myself included) define translation as a creative process---albeit requiring a different kind of creativity than, say, writing a free-verse poem. It's more like #creativity under constraint: like writing a #Petrarchan sonnet.

a recent #sonnet of mine about the winter solstice. let me know what you think!
