The Human Behind the Words
I’m Diane, a professional literary translator and proofreader translating from English and Spanish into French. I hold a Master’s degree in Translation and have been working as a freelancer for over 15 years.
I’ve translated and edited more than 50 books across a range of genres, including fantasy, suspense, cosy mysteries and romantic comedy. My clients include publishers, translation agencies and independent authors, and my work includes books by numerous USA Today and New York Times bestselling authors.
I’m the French translator of bestselling authors such as Rebecca Yarros (Great and Precious Things, contemporary romance), Rina Kent (Lies & Truths Duet, Monster Trilogy, dark romance), H. Y. Hanna (Oxford Tearoom Mysteries, cosy mystery), Barbara Kloss (Gods of Men, fantasy), Sarah A. Denzil (psychological thrillers) and Victoria Aveline (science-fiction romance), among others.
I offer literary translation, editing and proofreading services to help authors bring their books to French-speaking readers while preserving what makes their stories unique.
As an author myself, I understand how important it is to find a translator who can faithfully recreate your world in another language. I work closely with every author to capture their voice, style and creative vision. I also offer editing and proofreading alongside translation, giving your manuscript three layers of quality control for the best possible result.
