Stacy Stiles
Light Novel Editor, J-E Translator, and LQA
About
Hi! I’m Stacy and I’m a freelance Japanese-to-English Translator, Editor of light novels, manga, and indie fiction, and Game LQA. I’ve been studying the Japanese language and Japanese literature since early 2015. I fell in love with the language while in the middle of earning my English and Creative Writing degree at George Mason University, and I haven’t looked back since.I took my first professional job in early 2019 translating and typesetting manga for Amimaru. At the moment, I'm serving as a Light Novel Editor for J-Novel Club and Hanashi Media, a Japanese-to-English Translator and LQA for AllCorrect Games, and a Manga Proofreader/LQA and Japanese-to-English Translator for Manga Planet. I also work directly with clients looking to self-publish their own work and occasionally contribute articles and reviews to news websites, primarily on the subject of visual novels.As of March 2023, I am accepting additional freelance work! I’m particularly interested in fiction editing, but I'd also love more LQA projects for games and visual novels!
