I just finished my second foray into the world of audio books with the release of "McGowan's Call" by Audible.com. For those who enjoy "reading" this way, I have a deal for you. Audible has listed this 4 hour presentation at $15, but they gave me a number of codes so that I can provide free downloads for intrepid book lovers. If you send me an email (rob@smithwrite.net) I'll send you a code (as lo

| I am revisiting books that I read decades ago. During the 70's, I was pretty deep into the writings of Tolkien. I must admit that The Hobbit was the weakest among them. If I remember correctly, however, the stories grew out of the made-up bedtime tal ...more | |

"From the poem where the title comes to the final poem, Epitaph, Rob Smith writes poignant, meaningful poems from his life. The poetry and the few prose pieces tells of a life lived...with loss, with joy, with love, with family, and with reality. The "

"Eyes on Mars: A Poetic Memoir is bold and compelling. It demonstrates a deft balance of tension and restraint, striking a near ideal blend of being revealing and being fair and respectful. I believe the public at large would benefit from reading this"

If you'd like to have any of my books, I'd be happy to send along a copy. It looks like you are a reader and a reviewer. That's a great plus for any author trying to build a platform. Thanks.

Thanks for the add! I look forward to discussing books with you!
His new book is out: Shrader Marks: Keelhouse. It's two books for the price of one. It contains an updated version of Night Voices and its sequel, Keelhouse. When I started reading Keelhouse, I could not put it down, staying up way past my bedtime. The updated version of Night Voices is well worth the re-read, but if you haven't read Night Voices, you won't miss a thing because they are now together!
