G.M. O'Neill Never give up. With each story you write you are developing not only creative skills, but also the technical skills a good writer must bring to their work. So long as you stick to the craft it will reward you. You will grow as a writer.

There are the rare few who can spin words into amazing sentences, paragraphs, and stories right from the start. A lucky few. The rest of us have to learn by trial and error. It takes a lot of time. A lot of living, experiencing, and understanding the world around us with an open yet critical mind.
G.M. O'Neill A mystery I love to read about is that of consciousness. What is it exactly? Does it lie within each of us, so that we can never truly know what it is to be the other? Or is it located in some vast matrix of experience and knowledge, like a giant all encompassing library of records? If the last then we may be in the flesh in reality something like an avatar, individual vehicles of a great oneness.

Obviously, the answer is going to impact not only science, but also the esoteric, including all religions. This is a truly mindblowing subject. Are we all somehow connected at a deeper level? I suspect science will eventually answer these questions, and when it does it will both shock and thrill anyone interested in the subject.
G.M. O'Neill Cryptocurrencies like bitcoin and the blockchain technology they are based on are still unfamiliar to the vast majority. Yet, this technology is changing the world right now in ways most could never imagine. It's a train on the rail track we are tied to without knowing it. There are many questions to ask. Not only the 'what' kind of questions, but also the how, why, where, and who kind.

I wanted to write a book especially for those who will be forefront in this brave new world. Why not make it a series exploring the brain exploding scenarios that only SF can possibly do justice? That's how my new Atoma series for teens and young adults came to be.

It has humor and romance, as well as action and adventure, and not to forget mystery and suspense. The whole enchilada. A science fiction tale set in the near future especially written for teen and YA, but also for those who are a little older.

See you there.
G.M. O'Neill Happy New Year Linda. Well, I would be compelled to suggest my latest book due to be published January 10th 2019. Atoma and the Blockchain Game is the first of a new five book series. It's written for teens and young adults, but it will also make an enjoyable read for anyone who enjoys science fiction and coming of age tales. Book 2 will be out in February 2019.
