welcome

 
 


I’m Clete Barrett Smith, an author of books for young readers located in the Pacific Northwest. That’s a picture of me right there. Although you probably figured that out already. You look like someone who knows what they’re doing.


Feel free to come on in and stay as long as you like. But please, take off your shoes. (And would it kill you to bring some food next time?)


Thanks for stopping by!

My next book is a collaboration with the musician Dave Matthews, a fantasy middle grade adventure titled If We Were Giants. It was great fun working with Dave and I'm excited to share this story with you!
