Smashwords book reviews by Scot Walker
- The Education of Mr. Biggleton
on Sep. 01, 2011
It isn't offen that one reads an American fairy tale--and this one is delightful. Each of Joshua Bennett's characters has a distinct voice, a distinct personality and a distinct out-look on life. Kudos to the author for this delightful story.
- To Sir, With Love
on Sep. 03, 2011
I really like this short story and wish it could be expaned into a much longer narrative--perhaps a novel? I also wonder if it could become a portion of a chapter in that novel, perhaps entitled The Last Dance. On a more personal note, my grandfather fought in World War One- he died when I was 10 and I never got to question him about the war--so few people alive today who had any sort of a "personal touch" with soldiers who fought in that war to end all wars. Keep writing, I want to read more of your work
- From Farringdon
on Sep. 05, 2011
I really like this story. As a gay man, it has a sense of empowerment that I havent seen before. Keep them coming, I want to read more.
- Language Lessons (gay romance)
on Sep. 05, 2011
What an absolutely wonderful coming of age gay romance! Kudos to Jay Bell. I want to read everything you've ever written.
- Hell's Pawn
on Sep. 05, 2011
Wow, Jay Bell, you continue to delight me and amuse me. You are an extremely creative wordsmith. I haven't finished this book yet and am so hooked. Please keep writing and writing and writing.
- Re-creation (The Three Lands)
on Sep. 12, 2011
(no rating)
What an interesting story. I grew up marveling over the works of Mary Renault and this story reminds me of her style--her characters and descriptions. If you like Renault you will like Re-creation
- Time Travel Adventures Of The 1800 Club, BOOK I
on Sep. 12, 2011
what an interesting book. My dad helped renovate Ford's Theatre and the Peterson House where Lincoln died so this story was close to my heart. I also love the works of Jack Finney (From Time to Time; and TIme and Time Again) and this book is written in that same type of style--going back in time, trying to change time. kudos Robert McAuley for your interesting work.
- From Farringdon
on Sep. 12, 2011
very intersting story. i've been to the Barbicon center many times and love to hang out in London--fortunately I've never had this type of experience.
- Don't Cry If You Don't Try
on Sep. 22, 2011
This is a sweet little personal essay that would fit in very well with my favorite poem by Langston Hughes: Hold fast to dreams for if dreams die, life's a broken winged bird that cannot fly. Hold fast to dreams for when dreams go, life's a barren field frozen with snow
- The Ultimate Guide to Distinguish a Canadian from an American
on Sep. 22, 2011
This wonderful Canadian Tall Tale reminds me a lot of the legends of Pecos Bill and Paul Bunyon--such a fun story.
- A Freddie and Jimmy Story - The Snow Cat - Picture Book

As a man who is "owned" by two cats I was delighted by this sweet "tale" about Freddie and Jimmy. The art work is well done. Kudos to authnor N.A. Oswald

I wish Ash Stirling had read what she wrote before she published it here on Smashwords. Here is her opening sentence, "Raven twitched forward the hood of her jacket, pulling it over her red tresses so that her face was lost in the shadows. All that could be seen were only a pair of green eyes that glowed with a faint inner light. It wasn't for reasons of weather that’s she did so. Despite it being dull and dreary, grey and gloomy, the rain that had threatened all day had yet to eventuate." When was the last time any woman referred to her own hair as her tresses? When was the last time any of us used the phrase, "It wasn't for reasons of weather that I wore a raincoat? And what is this nonsense about it being dull and dreary and grey and gloomy that is going to make the rain eventuate? Eventuate? What's that all about. Ash, write words that people use—read your writing aloud! Ask yourself is this the way people speak?
- Air (An Elements of the Undead Novelette)
on Oct. 14, 2011
(no rating)
I like Zombies but I don't like Esmont[s style. I wish he knew how to write a compound-complex sentence—or even a compound one—or a complex one—or even a basic simple sentence. But no, Esmont writes like this: Nothing. Absolutely. Nothing. That makes me. Want to read. At least not a few paragraphs. Because. Well. You see. The reader's mind. Mine. Specifically. Mine. Has trouble. A lot. Comprehending. Especially. A story. Where the action. Stops. So often. By periods. Esmont, please. Please. Esmont. Read. Perhaps. Reading may enlarge. Probably will enlarge. At least. I hope. Your ability. Your b asic. Writing. Ability.
- The Author Business: A Practical Guide to the Business of Being a Self-Published Author
on Oct. 14, 2011
I finally read a Smashwords book worth reading. Kudos to J. L. Murphey. Her little book of tax advice and business advice is right on the money (pun intended). I've been earning money from my writing for over 50 years and wish I had known the facts in Murphey's book from the get go. If you are new to writing (or making tons of money) be sure to read this one! It's well worth your time.

There are so many problems with this book, but they all revoolve around the fact that the author just doesn't know how to write. When was the last time you ever heard anyone speak like this? "Leaving off his sulking thoughts, he gave himself over to studying an exquisite fan made of jade and silk, a delicate watercolor of lotuses painted upon it." How could the author have said this? "

I've been reading porn since the 1950s--everything from trash to the Pearl and must say that this piece is delightful! Great story, great characters, very good writing--I want to read more. Kudos to Ms. Raven de Hart
- The Reunion
on Nov. 19, 2011
(no rating)
What an old fashioned delightful story! A romance between two boys in high school, brewing over ten years, afraid to say what they want to say, afraid to be who they really are, meeting at their first high school reunion--meeting, really meeting for the first time. Sweetly written, with a plot and characters--good job, I'm becoming a fan, Raven
- House Arrest
on Nov. 19, 2011
I really like Raven de Hart's sytle, characters and plots. The only flaw is that I want more! Hopefully, Ravel will write a full length soon. Kudos to the author
