About

 Gerard O'Neill

Let's clear up one small matter right away. I am not either of the following two American writers. Gerard K O'Neill, the physicist, space activist, and author of the High Frontier. Alas, I cannot pretend to be he.

I am also not Gerard O'Neill the chronicler of Whitey Bulger, and have no clue as to whether the latter indeed wore anteater knee-high leather boots. I'm sorry I couldn't help you there, Toby.

I am a novelist living with my family in Sydney, Australia. Originally, I hailed from the deep south of New Zealand. I have lived half of my life outside of my country of birth and worked far too long in the suffocating confines of the academy. All of which should go some way toward explaining why I always enjoy the chance to escape to the great outdoors.  

I speak Japanese, er---somewhat badly, but I am still working on mastering the language. It might take me a while.

I always look for time to read a good book, and I particularly enjoy science fiction, as well as keeping up with matters scientific as well as historical. More recently I have read quite a lot about the Russian Revolution. It was, without a doubt, one of the most significant periods in a century that I believe remains a chapter as yet to be completed.

Oh, yes, and I write novels too.
