I've just finished my first book and one of my reviewers has asked if I plan to translate it to other languages.
I've thought about this only briefly, but as an American living in Malaysia I am sensitive to the fact that many people don't speak English as their first language and may in fact appreciate my work in their language.
Do you think this is worth the investment? The genre is Fantasy, which seems to be as popular in Asia as in the US from my experience here.
Should I go so far as to translate to Chinese? That's a huge potential eBook market for sure.
