About me
My name is M.H. Wynn, and I was born in 1973.
My story
M.H. Wynn
In the nineties I studied English literature at my local university, and that became the subject of my thesis. In addition, I have studied linguistics (semantics and syntax), the history of science, history and the history of cinema.
I did not feel comfortable as a teacher, there were too many people running about, so began a career online. First, I started a small literary search engine with the assistance of an Indian programmer. I then entered into academic translations, and was an academic translator for over a decade, working behind the scenes on articles and PhDs.
I also ran a small net radio dedicated to my old subjects from university, literature and history. I still edit this station, historyradio.org.
Gradually, I have gained the experience to venture into literary translation and text publication, a very competitive business, closing the circle – returning to my original interests. And now I am familiar with most of the publication and marketing platforms available for those who want to self publish. But my best argument is that I am affordable.
