WHAT THE CRITICS ARE SAYING:

- "This is a sexy, stylish thriller with
a savvy, no-nonsense hero"-
L.A. Johnson, Midwest Book Review

- "Never Trust Your Dreams" is
adventure, intrigue and romance, all
in one. - Allbooks Reviews

- "In 'Never Trust Your Dreams,' Tim
Smith once again shows his talent
as a writer.  This fan can hardly wait
for another sequel." - Doug Boren,
author

- "Nick Seven is the kind of guy your
mother wouldn't let you play with -
he's violent, he probably smokes
and drinks too much, and he's got
some things in his past that he'd like
to keep hidden.  Just don't tell mom
we'd all like to be Nick Seven!" -
David Compton, author.

- "Memories Die Last" is especially
relevant, given today's atmosphere
of possible terrorism. - Myshelf.com

- "These are two thrillers you don't
want to miss!" - J. P. McCall, Family
Ties

AN AWARD-WINNER:

"Memories Die Last" won the 2004 Allbooks
Reviews.com Editor's Choice Award for
fiction, and was recently named Best Mystery
Novel of 2005 by the literary panel at
Blackrefer.com.
I'LL BET YOU DIDN'T KNOW...

...that I pulled "Memories Die Last"
from consideration for publication
in the wake of 9/11/01, since the plot
dealt with domestic terrorist activity,
and I felt it was too sensitive a topic
at the time, even though I had
completed the manuscript six
months earlier.  
I'LL BET YOU ALSO DIDN'T KNOW...

...that I participated in the World's
Largest Booksigning in Frederick,
MD, on 2/29/03, where there were
178 authors in attendance, all
selling books.  Talk about
competition!
ONE FINAL PIECE OF USELESS
TRIVIA:

I was recently asked in an interview
about the worst piece of advice I
received on writing.  While it's a
long list, the top prize would have to
go to the guy who suggested (with a
straight face) that I publish under
the name "Tim Clancy" so I'd sell
more books.
"Are you sure Ian Fleming started
this way???"
