Bacon Double Cheesemurder
on Jan. 16, 2014
Great story. I did see the outcome, but I think I knew that going in and I still enjoyed the ride. Odd, is the story setting in America or the UK? Other than the use of the words gormless, tyres it could be set in America. Thanks for the read and love the cover.

on Jan. 16, 2014
I agree with Walter. Spot-on and you don’t feel like your reading a text book. Also like the part about Criticism.

Number Withheld

Great story. I agree the dialogue was realistic and a good twist at the end. Fun read, thanks.

Deleted Memories
on Jan. 23, 2014
I enjoyed your store, thank you. Do not listen to people like Patrick Jane. A one word review isn't constructive and as a fellow author he should be ashamed. If you haven't, check out First Mistakes by David Blake, especially the first part. It can be found here at Smashwords. Keep writing.

Oblivious
on Jan. 31, 2014
Stars off a little like Robert Frost with a great description of the woods. Great job with the ending things build up from bad to worse.

Smashwords Writing Duel
on Feb. 05, 2014
“Won of the best storys on Smasshwords ive ever red.” Starts off fun with the back and forth and ends with a bit deeper back story of Linda. Nicely done. I didn’t see Linda’s character as weak, but more…. lived. God, I'm glad “Clever Trevor” hasn’t found me yet and I'm starting to agree with some of the reviews of this and your other stories. Dammit, I wish id thought of that story first! Great job, thanks

Here in Sullen
on April 27, 2014
I enjoyed your short story very much, like a twilight zone with a point. Just one thing I feels a bit rushed,something I'm guilty of my self. A little more time with it I think you could have taken it from good to great. Thank you for sharing your work.

Monkey Business

Twas A Good Day To Die

The Graveyard's Retribution
on March 18, 2015
The cemetery is lovely, dark and deep, But I have promises to reap, And mite be awhile before you sleep. I agree the story is a little darker and that's a good thing. The characters are well done and the back story and ending fit perfectly. With a nice build up all the way to the end. Oh and nice cover.

Let the Reader Beware
on April 14, 2015
Only from the mind of Jonathan Antony Strickland can you go into short story with the question of are you who you think you are? Are you sure? And come out the the other side with a smile and a feeling of humanity. Great job.
-
The Fool and the Fiend
on Oct. 05, 2015
Another great story from Jonathan Anthony Strickland where he's managed to give the reader micro stories with in a short story but never take you out of the main story line, no easy feat. I loved the twist at the end. Oh and I've spent the last three days crying and cursing the yeti. Would love to read that story.

Abandoned: A Ghost Story
on Nov. 23, 2017
I enjoyed the story but I would have liked a little bit more of an explanation at the end. If it had been a short story or flash fiction I would have been ok with the ending. That being said it was well written and I like your writing style. Thank you for sharing your story. I will definitely check out your other book on Amazon.

Let's Hope the Future Doesn’t Sound This Bad

In Fear Of The Red White And Blue
on Nov. 14, 2018
Got to admit I'm a little curious about those mad furry big-eared bastard's. Fun story. Great sense of humor as always. Now I think I'm off for a cup of...

on March 24, 2019
Great story. I like the inner voice of Memory / Alice being the majority of the narrator and the ending was perfect.
-
Investigations Into The Strange And Unusual
on June 29, 2019
Fun and imaginative as with all his stories. Don't want to give away anything but I thought the way the the main character received and deciphered the clues was great. I liked the after and p.s. and p.s.s. And one last thing I'm so sick of Bernie upstaging me.
-
The Dead Don't!
on Aug. 31, 2019
Fun read, like all of his stories. I could have read a couple more conversation before it ended but zombies don't.... Fantastic writing as always.

The Library
on Feb. 28, 2020
A fun read and well written. I didn't feel like all my questions were answered when I reached the end. That's not a complaint. I think I wasn't done with the world and characters the author created. Looking forward to reading more from this author.
-
May Contain ????? ?????
on April 23, 2020
A willingness of the main character to deny his beliefs of an eccentric confectionery eventually gives way to more than expected, or perhaps just an unwanted truth. The author offers a bit of whimsy along the way. An entertaining story from an author who never disappoints.

The Triceratops and Cut The Cord
on Sep. 27, 2020
Cut the cord was great. I liked the one line Like siren song With whispering wrongs
-
Of Muscle and Magic
on Dec. 27, 2020
A line from the book sums this book up perfectly. "I warn you now of something of the task at hand though, it involves fighting dangerous creatures, but more importantly the main enemy who will need to be destroyed will be a powerful wizard like myself, dealing in the darkest magics!" If you're in to fantasy do yourself a favor and don't let this one pass you by. The world created in this story feels whole without being overly bogged down with a history lesson to do so. If you're familiar with some of this authors other work it is slightly different but just a well written and worth the read
-

on May 29, 2021

You Are The Monster
on Oct. 21, 2021
This has been in my to read list for awhile and I wish I had gotten around to reading it sooner. It's a short but fun read. I enjoyed the point of view for the telling of the story and the chosen creature. I loved the choose your adventure books and could definitely see the influence in this story and some of the authors works.

Last Meta Moments
