#WritersCoffeeClub Aug 9: In your work, do you include short sections in languages other than the primary language?
Not whole sections, no, but I have a sci-fi gag where a character can use minor telepathy to understand any language she speaks a little of, so I’ve peppered her dialogue with her antagonist/mentor with French because said antagonist/mentor is Québécois.
