Dear eilonwy,
your work is awesome. Is there (here) a way how to contact you? I (we) would like to translate some of them to others can read them too. With full credit to you, of course. I just don't know here how to contact you and ask for permission directly.
Thank you

I am immensely flattered that you want to translate some of my stories. However, I am not interested in having my work translated and I cannot give my permission.

Thank you for reaching out and for the lovely compliment.

I am so sorry when I see this type of answer. It is a pity because The Hunger and The Legacy are maybe the best stories I have read in recent years. We are amateur translators, so translations are the only way to fully understand English text. You know, we are learning English this way.

I respect your decision now, mostly because we have plans for 2020-21 already done, but I am sure I will be back again, and I will ask you again in some time.

By the way, we have translated over 10 million words already for more than 11 years. We have the gold rule that each translation has to be finished; there is always somebody who will pick up the baton.

Because I am that one responsible for Dramione, I have to say that I want to have The Legacy translated at least in privacy collection. The reason is the hope inside that story. So very needed hope now. You have no idea what this story means for me, and I could get maybe 30 percent of it just by reading. And my friend says that The Hunger is incredible too. I looked at first chapter and I agreed. I knew at once that was a treasure (Dramione treasure). Perhaps I will not read more of your stories because what if they are worth translation, and we will not be able to do it? I would be disappointed again.

I sincerely hope you will still be here in the next year(s) so I could ask you once more. Maybe I will forget... maybe real life will say no, but if I still remember those two stories in next year, then I will ask you politely again. We have our own Restricted section just for some of us, and stories there are not shared publicly. So maybe this is a way how you could agree with translation.

I wish you only the best and thank you that you found time to answer.
