I wonder how this compares to other Smashwords ebooks - do they all have the publisher where the author belongs?
Also, I find A LOT of ebooks are badly formatted, with lots of mistakes. This doesn't surprise me.
It is pretty bad if it's a Smashwords issue, though.
Update: I checked some other epubs I got from Smashwords and the author's name is in the right place. It's related to the way the specific books were done, not Smashwords.
It really doesn't reflect on the quality of the content.
