Foteini said...: Yes, I would say it did! First of all I had a great time in UEA with all the stuff and students - career-wise it has helped a lot. I definitely learned how to do my research and what to pay attention to when translating literature. I have done 37 books so far and i just love my job. Even if it kills me sometimes :) What is ur field? CHildrens' lit?; July 2, 2010 at 1:22:00 PM GMT+1
