In all, he has published nine books of poetry and two volumes of fiction. In 2006, Smith also published a collection of his newspaper profiles of 40 Saskatchewan artists. In 2015 he published "Emanations: Fluttertongue 6" with Toronto's BookThug. In 1996-1997, Smith served as writer-in-residence at the Saskatoon Public Library.
