I am based in Scotland where I coordinate the monthly Translators' Stammtisch and Translation Theory Lab (both on Zoom at the moment) with the aim of fostering an active translation community: after all, we all studied languages to communicate, not to shout at our computer screens! I also coordinate the Literature and Translation programme at Cove Park, Scotland's international artist residency centre and a member of Literature Alliance Scotland, offering work residencies for writers and translators alike.
