Applications for Flash Sessions are open on our Submittable page and will close on Friday, September 27. Interested translators will have the chance to discuss a short sample of their work with an editor from a prominent publication. Translators will be paired with a participating editor for a 10-15 minute meeting to receive feedback on up to two pages of their work.

This year, for the first time ever, we’re introducing Pitch Sessions for editors and translators! Translators will be paired with a participating editor or publisher from a prominent translation press for a 5-minute meeting to pitch a project. Sign-ups are open via our Google form and will close on Friday, September 27. Please note that by selecting an appointment, you are committing to meeting at that time with an editor. In selecting a slot, you have signed up and are confirmed for this time.

Slots are sure to fill up quickly, so sign up before they disappear and take advantage of this chance to show off your work!
