about this author

edit data

Life for CB Smith began in a southern part of the northern hemisphere where the heavy misted skies threatened to strangle him in swamps of crocodile infested feculent. Abandoned at birth by Trotskyite revolutionaries, he was picked up by a wild crazy eyed trader and transported to a remote Indian jungle where he was raised by a band of itinerate lion-tailed macaque monkeys trying to write Hamlet using IBM Selectric Typewriters. Thus began his life. His essays, surreal fiction, and book reviews, have been published in various worldwide e-zines and magazines. He is far from normal.

Thanks for adding me as your friend, C.B. Your books look very interesting! I received a notice that you wrote something about me, but I can't seem to find it.

Still can't find the "story" link. Guess I need some sleep. :) How about emailing me what you said @ JeanHenryMead@aol.com.

Thanks!
