Fandom! I need help. :)

Hola, fandom folk!

Some of you are French-speakers or know French, I am sure of it. I am on the lookout for m/m fiction in French. Original or fanfic, I am not picky.

I may be picking up some translation gigs in the near future, and while French is my native tongue, I am not familiar with the particular terminology and phrasing of, well, porn. Each genre has its own language and idioms, and my translating experience is primarily in the humanities (non-fiction).

So now I have to read porn for SCIENCE, you understand.

Help? Anyone? Bueller?

I'm utterly gobsmacked that English isn't your native language, only because of the absolutely stellar quality of your English writing. Sorry if you had already mentioned it and it dribbled out my ear...

Hee! I think I might have mentioned it at some point in my early days of fandom, but I don't really go on and on about it.

Technically, while French is my native tongue, I started speaking English when I was very little and did most of my studies in English too, so I'm pretty much bilingual. In fact, my English is better than my French on quite a few subjects (notably anything to do with computers or anything involving medical terms).
