Like former Navy seals, do retired federal agents have to have the US government censors preview their books before publishing?
Not if it is fiction and doesn't talk about anything you did that could be considered sensitive information or classified. But former Navy SEALS, and others in sensitive positions do it all the time in non-fiction. Tom Clancey had information that could be considered classified in his fiction, but no one ever said anything. I guess it depends who you know.
Thanks for the quick reply, Gary! Discovered you via your podcast and hope to order some of your books ASAP. Keep up the awesome work.
Hey Ryan, lucky I have notifications turned in Goodreads I never go in here anymore. I was just looking something up on the old dummy net so good timing. Glad you found the podcast and like it enough to take a look at my books.
