Welcome to my own small piece of the World Wide Web. My name is Grady Smith and I write fictional books based on my experience and plays intended to be satirical, funny and sometimes deadly serious. | |
On my web site you will find information on my books and plays as well as point of contact information. I hope that you enjoy these efforts. | |
My debut novel, Blood Chit, is available now at your favorite bookstore or from Amazon.com. | |
I am proud to announce that a book detailing the history of the 31st Infantry Regiment since its inception will be released in summer 2018. The work is a colloboration of several authors including Karl H. Lowe, James B. Simms, and myself. More details can be found here. | |
I am always interested in hearing about vets' experiences, or family members' experiences with vets. Please send any questions or comments via the contact page. | |
Be well! Grady |
