Ester Vidal – Translator

I’m Ester, a professional literary translator and editor specializing in bringing stories to life in Spanish and Catalan.

I’ve translated more than 100 books for publishers and self-published authors spanning fantasy, romance, suspense, young adult and children’s fiction, and non-fiction. I always respect the original’s tone, rhythm and intention, so that the story works in Spanish or Catalan without losing its unique identity.

I’m experienced with long novels and fantasy sagas that call for narrative coherence from start to finish and volume to volume, meaning total attention to detail is everything.

I’ve translated dozens of children’s books, so I know how important it is to carefully consider language use, transfer cultural references appropriately and make sure the words match the illustrations perfectly. When it comes to the smallest readers, every word counts, and every sentence has to sound natural.

My goal is simple: readers should feel the same emotions, excitement, and connection as they would with the original text.

I also offer translation revision, stylistic editing, and proofreading services for Spanish and Catalan texts. Whether you need a final quality check before publication, support polishing a manuscript, or a careful review of an existing translation, I’ll help ensure your text is clear, consistent, natural, and ready to reach readers.

Working with me means having a dedicated language professional who cares about the details without losing sight of the bigger picture. I combine linguistic expertise, cultural sensitivity, and a genuine love of books to provide a personal, reliable service tailored to each project.

If you’re looking for someone who treats your story with the same care you put into writing it, I’d love to help you open the door to new readers.
