I just published in kindle a book with an advance from the libretto for the upcoming opera entitled Sangre real.
I expect to publish more creations along the next weeks.
Apología de la visibilidad de la sangre menstrual
adelanto de lo que puede llegar a ser una ópera, acaso su acto final
Sale a la luz con idea de crecer y ganar duración hasta convertirse en una ópera o misa sacra.
Adquirirlo es un apoyo fantástico y que se agradece, también divulgarlo o que alguien le (com)ponga una buena música (yo lo canturreo a ritmo de chotis por jugar).
¡¡Salud y libertad menstrual!!

My average daily output is from 2000 to 5000 words,
depending on format and complexity and CAT tool. For general content in Word or
PDF legible by Studio I can deliver a high-quality translation of 2000 words in
3-4 hours, according to complexity, exigence and urgency. To adapt,
localize or transcreate, it can be about 5-6 h. Per day, maximum between
4000-7000 words, according to complexity and exigence. For proofreading,
I estimate a minimum of 3000 and a maximum of 10000 words per day.
Translation, editing, proofreading rates:
My normal rates are between 0.07 € and 0.16 € per
translated word and about 0.035 € and 0.07 € per proofread word, depending on
the kind of text, turnaround time, monthly volume… For big projects or
long-term collaborations, I would consider working with lower rates, if the
monthly basis is reasonable. Per hour, between 17 € and 50 €. For MTPE I
usually get 0.04 € per word.
