Danke schön!  (Well, I am so happy I'm speechless!  I am very greatly
honoured!  Ron, is there room on Lowlands website for the translations (and
original, plus challenge)?  Let's see if we can't rustle up some more!)

Hey, Wes!

Your question:

 Ron, is there room on Lowlands website for the translations (and original,
plus challenge


The simple answer is “Yeah! Hello! Duh! Abso- bloody -lutely, mate! Boys and
girls that pay attention would know this by now.” ;-)

http://lowlands-l.net/gallery/

You are more than welcome to display non-X-rated and non-libelous works
there and we’ll display them in conjunction with their translations, if any.
In this case, your English original would be displayed in your gallery
corner, and Hanne’s versions would be displayed in her corner, and they
would all be interlinked. Take a look at my “translations” of the works of
Arend, Marsha and both Toms as examples. Also, we can add a note to call for
further “translations”.

Of course this requires that you agree to open your own corner in the
gallery. For this we need a brief personal introduction (which can be as
brief as a two- or three-sentence paragraph), preferably with a mug shot. If
you want to do this, please send me a private message with the required
material. Naturally, Hanne would also have to agree to display her
“translations”. Knowing her, I don’t foresee any problem with that.

Folks, this applies to all of you. And, no, you need not be poets or other
types of writers. You may fill your gallery nooks with other sorts of
creations that are your own, such as paintings, photographs, cartoons, sound
recordings, videos ... yeah, also photographs or videos of your works or
finds if you are sculptors, builders, gardeners, ghost hunters, dancers,
dressmakers, weavers, treasure hunters, candlestick makers, historical
enactors, or whatever it is that floats your boats.
