Smashwords Interview

What's the story behind your latest book?
That would have to be China, if it's English Last you're referring to. Yes, I will admit it: I was a whore for the English language industry. I feel dirty, and the book was a cheaper alternative than therapy.
Do public bathrooms scare you?
Sometimes they do, yes, Mark. I'd say late at night in unlit areas, yes, public bathrooms can be a little scary.

Smashwords book reviews by Greg Strandberg

  • Flags of the United States on April 04, 2013

    What a great little book! I was scanning through the free library and noticed the eye-catching cover. I started looking for my own state of Montana and got caught up in reading about some of the other states. I like that some states have more than one flag so you can see earlier designs. You'll certainly have a greater appreciation of flags after this. I was a little disappointed to learn that Montana has been voted the 3rd worst flag in the country, although that's through no fault of the author.
  • The Deluge on April 04, 2013

    This little book has lots of good information if you’re looking for a quick academic writing source. I got a good chuckle out of seeing the Epic of Gilgamesh mentioned, probably the original biblical flood event that affected Sumer. Sure brought me back to HIST 107, or was it HIST 151? Boy, I think I need an epic flood to wash the cobwebs from my memory!
  • Growth and Decline of Economies of Europe and US on April 04, 2013

    I love the concept for this book. Those money-grubbing back-stabbing Europeans sure had their way with America before it became a country. And when America became a country, boy, we sure became just like them. This book will highlight some of the interesting aspects of that rise and change, and it's presented in a pretty good format too.
  • Blurb-O-Matic How To Write To Sell on May 01, 2013

    This book gave me some very good ideas for writing my own ebook blurbs. If you're a new or even established author, you'll find something in this books that helps. It's a short read for a short subject, but well worth the price.
  • The Book of Deacon on June 16, 2013

    I've been seeing this book on the Amazon free charts for some time so I finally decided to download it. Well, it took me a bit of time to get around to reading it, and I regretted it because I should have read it sooner. This is a very good epic fantasy book with characters you actually care about. The story is fast-paced and flows well. I'm looking forward to reading the next volume in the series.
