Author Information

Martin Smith is an Australian author-a humorist, of sorts-of short fiction. He lives in a beach house at the tip of the Bellarine Peninsula. When he is not banging away on his keyboard with thumbs and index fingers or reading his scribblings to his beloved Rose, you'll more likely than not find him walking the beach barefoot at low tide or downing a double scoop of Rocky Road at the local ice-creamery.
