Could you help me by correcting my written mistakes in my spiritual novel?

Well... I'm French, learning English at University. Of course, it isn't perfect. However, I'm writing a biographical novel describing what happens in my soul. I have been writing it in French for a very long time. I decided to start translating it in English. Because of my English filled with mistakes, I'd like to know if anyone would be interested on my request and would like to know more about my account.

I can post you an except of a translation if you're interested.

I would be interested in reading your account!

I am not sure how faithful I can be to corrections, since I am always busy with my own university classes.

Let me know what you think, feel free to email me at:

shuseminarian@yahoo.com

God Bless,

Allen

I would help, but, if you are studying english at university then your english is probably better than mine.

Oh, you don't need to be so smart. I make mistakes like... "I have been in Paris" instead of "I have been TO Paris" ; I don't think one needs to go to university to know that.

Thanks for your address! I sent you an e-mail.

Thing, if you're interested, tell me and we can keep contact!

Hello Bebekoualy, I think you mean post an "excerpt". That would be interesting.
Also you said elsewhere "that was the Rule and she obeyed to it" but it should be "obeyed it."

I would be happy to help.

I'd be willing to help as well, though I've only had 3 years of french, so it might be like the blind leading the blind.

I would like to help though, when possible.

lva0001@auburn.edu is my email.

I'm willing to help. Translations can be quite difficult, as you know, but I'll be glad to help correct any of the really obvious errors.
