			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Corinne McKay took my &#8220;Promoting Your Book Using Social Media&#8221; class last year, and it convinced her to start a blog to promote her book, <em>How to Succeed as a Freelance Translator</em>.  She subsequently launched a terrific blog called <a href="http://www.thoughtsontranslation.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.thoughtsontranslation.com');" target="_blank">Thoughts on Translation</a>.</p>
<p>She writes timely, relevant content for translators and other freelancers, and publishes approximately twice a week.  Her posts also spark terrific conversations, which you can read in the comment section of each post.  This article on <a href="http://thoughtsontranslation.com/2009/04/13/diversifying-your-income-stream/" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/thoughtsontranslation.com');" target="_blank">Diversifying your Income Stream</a> received 17 comments:</p>
<p class="blockquote" style="margin-left: 40px;"><a href="http://www.translatewrite.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.translatewrite.com');"><img class="size-full wp-image-147 alignleft" title="CorinneMcKayPhoto" src="http://bloggingwithbeth.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/CorinneMcKayPhoto.jpg" alt="Corinne McKay Photo" width="100" height="128" /></a>&#8220;Happily, most successful translators are good candidates for<br />
branching out beyond translation. If you’re running a successful<br />
freelance business, chances are that in addition to being fluent in at<br />
least two languages, you’re a good or excellent writer in your target<br />
language and you’re reasonably tech-savvy. All of these are good<br />
starting points for a sideline venture.&#8221;</p>
<p>Corinne also says that starting her blog is the best thing she&#8217;s done for her business, and for promoting her book. She has now started a new podcast for translators called <a href="http://speakingoftranslation.com/" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/speakingoftranslation.com');" target="_blank">Speaking of Translation</a>.</p>
<p>Great work, Corinne!
