The Spanish Renegade Spy Is Now On Pre-Order
The German version is held up in the editing process, but the Spanish one is full-steam ahead. My first foreign-language version of my debut novel, “The Renegade Spy“, is now on pre-order at Amazon, entitled “La Espia Indomable” (The Indomitable Spy).
The Kindle version will go on sale on August 30th at the price of 99 cents. The paperback copy will appear a few days later at the price of $6.99.
I had some great help with getting it out. Kristina Henneke designed the cover, Natalia Steckel di...

The New Star Wars Movie “Solo” Trailer Is Out!
Some of the Star Wars movies have been downright awful (here’s looking at you Jar-Jar), but ever since Disney took over the franchise, we’ve seen the quality of the movies go through the roof.
The “origins” movies though have been met with a lot of mixed feelings by Star Wars fans. Despite the indifference of some, I enjoyed Rogue One very much, although I thought the CGI effects of Peter Cushing was really awful. Now, at the end of May, comes “Solo” which traces the roots of Hans Solo and Ch...

My Video Interview On Terri Loves Books
Here is a video interview I did last week with Terri A Wilson, who runs a book website. She interviewed me about my Department 89 books, as well as other things such as my writing technique, and even a question that almost stumped me at the end!
Being a quiet shy kind of guy though, I can never watch these things to the end, because I get so embarrassed seeing myself on screen. Even if I did a good job.

Should An Dying Author’s Last Wishes Be Respected?
[image error]
A fascinating piece in the Guardian newspaper a couple of days ago, about dead authors and their wishes for their work after they are dead. Everybody knows how Kafka got royally screwed by his so-called friend Max Brod (mentioned in this article). Kafka wanted his work destroyed unread and unpublished, and Brod did the exact opposite.
But there have been so many other cases and the Guardian piece does a nice job of summarising some of them. Even the ones obeying the author to destroy any un...

The Clock Is Ticking To The Release Of “The Traitor”
Today was the day I thought would never come. “The Traitor” is completely 100% finished.
Well I say “finished” but I am getting the beta reader team back together again and the book is now being sent out to them for reading, edification, and digesting. No doubt I will have to do a few quick rewrites in places before its official release date on March 31st.
For some reason, putting the book out the next day on April 1st – April Fool’s Day – just felt too weird!
I am now taking a break from D...

The Mark O’Neill Podcast Is Coming…..Looking For Author Guests!
One of the projects I would REALLY like to get off the ground finally in 2018 is my podcast. This has long been a procrastination project, partly because I have been extremely busy writing my books, and partly because I was unsure what the podcast topic was going to be.
In the end, I’ve decided to use the podcast as a vehicle for promoting my books, as well as promoting the independent author community as a whole. We all have to look after and promote one another, so I think this would be a...
