You. Hi, I'm Georgia, an editor and translator with 30 years of experience in independent publishing. I founded Bookblast Limited in 1997, and the first booklast.com site went live in 2000. I work both as an editor, a translator, a consultant, and I do a lot of promotions through the online journal The Book Blastari, notably of new writing, diverse voices, translations, and I'm also the literary executor of various writers. Nice to meet

Hi, Georgia. Welcome to swell. Super exciting to have you here. There's a great community that loves talking about books. There's authors, people who love writing in general. So so I think you'll fit right in. And I'm super excited to get to know you a little bit better and to get to know Book Blast. I'm going to check out the website right now. Thanks for being here and let me know if there's anything that I can help you with
