Haha, I need a motivation to translate my own work. Here what I decide, I would translate Heart, Actually to English for MAN Literary competition, besides completing my other manuscripts. Deadline: 31 March 2008. Hope I can finish all before deadline.
Oh yeah, the reason I am translating Heart Actually is because the Asian values (read: Indonesian values) are more apparent (more serious haha) in Heart Actually. Sydney Pelabuhan Darling seems not really Asian (coz of the background). Memory & Destiny has not been sold out (to the publisher and the 2nd installment is still in progress). And, no manpower to help me hahaha
Wish me luck!
