Since I totally fail at languages...

[rispacooper]

A few people have offered over the years to help me with my translations, and since I wasn't editing Ideas of Sin at the time I always said thank you and when I edit, I'll definitely need the help.

Well I'm editing now, finally (Inorite?), and anyone who would like to correct my Portuguese or French is more than welcome to nitpick, just as I would nitpick when reading any novel in which the translations to English (or Spanish) were wrong.

To be honest, it's mostly the French. There's only a line or two in Portuguese. If my bad language skills en francais have been driving you crazy now's the time to let me know.

:)

No really, I will be completely and totally grateful. I may even owe you ficcage for the assist.

If my Spanish is off even, let me know (though if it is, both Pooky and I might die of shame, like whoa). Though I think that's it for languages, aside from a bit of Gaelic and one word in Dutch. I think it was Dutch. I really need to reread that chapter...

Anyway, just putting the word out. Otherwise I will do a bit more research and possibly end up at Babelfish, and you know how that goes. Oy vey.

A long, long time ago, when I was younger and more innocent (ha) okay, more foolish, I started an original slash novel as a joke.

It quickly became epic, as those things do. I finished it over a year ago and have refused to look at it since, though it needed some editing like crazy.

I am finally taking a crack at fixing all the errors. Including the language mistakes.
