Translate text of homoerotic Greek myth in graphic novel format from English into French
Budget: $25 – $50 USD
The job entails the translation of the text of the Archias & Actaeon myth in graphic novel form. The first chapter (the only one ready for translation) can be found here:

The myth is a critique of oligarchy, mediated by the device of the serial sexual violation of boys by a powerful ruler. You will need to be comfortable writing on this delicate subject. As the chapters are now in the process of being constructed, the work will be episodic, with short bursts of feverish activity followed by long stretches of otium. The whole job may well last six months or more.
You must have genuine writing skills. If I wanted a mechanical translation I could do it myself. Je parle français couramment, mais pas assez pour faire ce travail.
