Mr Chris "I’ve been to the top of Breast Mountain" Ryan, I want to offer to translate the upcoming book "Civilized to Death" to brazilian portuguese or even help in editing it, collecting the sums of random bits into a cohesive narrative. Do you have any email address so I can send more details? I plan on deleting these messages right after you tell me the address so it doesn’t stay here. I also provide transcription, so in case you want to record portions of the book on audio I can help with that too. On email I can explain more.
You answered my comment from "Porto Alegre" a while back. Never ocurred to me that I could offer translation services to you, in this case it was a happy accident that this book got delayed so much. It would help me tremendously to get started in this business with a huge name like yours for street rep. Might the universe help me? I don’t know, I’m just throwing it out there, it’s better than not I guess.
