Looking for an experienced Welsh language editor

Welsh General / Questions
#1

Hey folks, I’ve written a very short (3165 words atm, including 618 words of vocab) book about garden birds as a vocabulary builder for intermedia learners.

I’m looking for an experienced Welsh-language editor to both correct my mistakes and ensure that the Welsh reads naturally. I started this as a learning exercise for myself, so I’m keen to work with someone who won’t just correct everything, but who will also look to see if I’m making the same type of mistake repeatedly so that I can improve.

I do have some budget for this, so if this sounds like you or someone you know, please DM me.

Missed the deadline for tomorrow’s newsletter, but if you don’t get a response, let me know in a couple of weeks and I’ll pop something into the next one.

Thanks, Deborah! I’ll put a call out on Bluesky, which seems to have a thriving Welsh language community, and see if I can find anyone there.

I’ve posted a link to this topic on Mastodon - there’s a decent number of Welsh speakers on there too.
