Can only agree with most of what @BornInCantaloup wrote.

As france, we already have agri+tw so the food we have available is already accessable.
Lots of food and forests call for early BW.
Likely techpath here is mining->bw->pottery.

I think I will move warrior SE to see if anything calls me to move in that direction.
Then possibly settler NE and then S or SE depending on what is revealed.

SiP is perfecly fine!

Consider settling ON the corn. This is probably not optimal if you're going for some sort of record, but if you're a Deity beginner, it will get you a worker sooner, and settlers sooner.
Don't over expand. Just pick good sites.
As others said, focus on slavery/granary with that food heavy start.
Cottage the river tiles.

Just assume the the AI will be nice until you're ready to turn on them. Either Horse Archers, Maces, or in this case, Musketeers would be fun. Gunpowder is pretty easy to get to early. Double bulb education. You get to ignore walls and castles
