I translate German fiction into English from bestselling authors such as Sebastian Fitzek, Charlotte Roth, Vincent Kliesch, Frank Goldammer, Werner Sonne, and Andreas Kollender, among others. I also translate samples and marketing materials for publishers, agencies, and film clients in Germany.
As a writer, I'm the author of the Kaspar Brothers novels and other books. Show Game is my latest novel.
I was a Fulbright Fellow in Germany and am also a freelance editor. For more, including credits, see: www.stephenfanderson.com/translation
