Unfortunately, Smashwords hung up and wouldn't process the sale, so the experiment ended a bit more abruptly than I'd intended!

Your experiment is well on its way. I just bought it, using your coupon. I think it has more sales on Amazon in part because it is a much more widely known retailer. I actually prefer to use smashwords. I see that some have trouble with various technical aspects of what it may do with books, but speaking strictly as a consumer, I will buy off smashwords much more readily than I will any other ebook retailer.
Having read, enjoyed, and reviewed your short stories on smashwords, I'm looking forward to the novel! I was getting around to picking it up, and I saw your post and couldn't resist checking it out tonight.
