First off I want to thank ALL of my readers here for their patience and comments about my works "Magic 201" and "Magic 301". Yes, I am in great need of an editor. And I finally have one. His name is Claude. (Yes) Yes, I went and had him go through and review what my writing was and I got about 30 pages of edit changes. So I am going into 201 first and I am going to ask to resubmit it. That will probably take me until thanksgiving. Then I will do 301 and give it the same word based enema. The context won't change, the character won't change, but the spelling, and the host of other issues will.
Then I am going to submerge myself into another Chapter of the world of Hank. And a few of his followers. The death of his consul, and the new group of characters that come along. The main challenge to Hank's world is based on the publication of the programs (like PRISM) that shook this nation in reaction to 9-11. As well as the grueling repeat of Vietnam that came to our televisions and our neighborhoods.
I admit that Hank has some angst about the changes in the world. And the initial bumps into the world of Intelligent Augmentation that came about in the 2010s. Followed by the massive growth of IA that precedes today.
If you like how this moved, keep an eye out for Magic 401. Coming out next year (After I clean up the mess I made with 201 and 301)
again, thank you all for critique and comments. And let's see if I can get this over the 9.00 hump.
