It was an idea that was born right before I relocated to Denmark from where I had been comfortably sitting in the Caribbean, mai tai in hand, working for Orbitz.
"I'll write", I said. "Full time! And eventually, my Danish will be so fantastic that people will pay me to translate their Danish text into beautiful, persuasive, melts-in-your-mouth English."
And most of the time, that's exactly what happened. :)
