A Japanese company has offered me a gig helping translate an Android<sup>1</sup> business application + documentation into English. Their staff will do a rough translation, and I will polish it into something reasonably professional. This is my first writing job. My “qualifications” are availability, cheapness, and a fair technical background. (I also happen to think I can write good prose, but the client didn’t bother to check that.) But still, I want this contract to be a success, and I hope it will lead to more work. What work habits and routines do I need to establish in preparation for this new job? <sub>1. Android OS is the operating system that drives most non-Apple smartphones and tablets.</sub>
