I'm not an author, so I'm not sure what all is involved in the differences between retailers, but I will generally buy a book from smashwords before any other place. The vast majority of my books have come from smashwords, actually. I have heard other authors say they sell more on amazon than they do on smashwords, and so putting a book on smashwords may be less of a huge moneymaker, and more of an "appealing to a worldwide audience" type of thing. I guess I'd think that you could only increase your sales/spread of the book by adding smashwords to your arsenal? (I won't/can't? buy BN books, and I rarely buy from amazon, as I can only easily read those on my ipod touch, and it's a much less satisfying way to read for me)
That being said, I did download your epub from your site, thank you!
