Book News, Finally

I've completed edits and revisions on Book One (formerly SCORPION, now WEAPONS GRADE). Keeping in mind author Steven Hildreth, Jr. 's criticisms on showing vs telling, I've ended up adding 14,000 words. I made numerous changes and added some new stuff (like Avery being detained for interrogation by Tajikistan's KGB) throughout to make a more cohesive narrative and tighter story, as well as tweaking some technical details, like swapping out the Ground Branch team's MP5 subguns for M4A1 CQBRs. Suffice to say, if you already have the old edition, I'd highly recommend replacing it with the new edition, especially since it will be free the first week week it is published (sometime in the next two weeks). VIPER will be next and probably published the following month.
