A translation is doing your talking for you.
Make sure it sounds like you.

Your book took years to write — don't let a rushed translation undo that work. Italian readers notice more than you'd think, and it shows up in your reviews.

"Technically correct" and "sounds human" are not the same thing. A machine pass gets the words right.

A human pass gets the voice right — and that's what keeps readers turning the page instead of closing the app.

DM me "ITALIAN" and I'll tell you what to look for before you publish.
