Smashwords -- at least last I checked -- will only take Word documents for 
conversion to ebook format. Personally, that's enough reason for me not to use 
them; I have a few tools for creating EPUB books directly at this point, 
including Pages itself as well an under-documented Markdown-to-EPUB tool I 
wrote called Bookbind (https://github.com/chipotle/bookbind). And, I can use 
the ugly but functional Calibre to convert from EPUB to MOBI.

(And, of course, BBEdit can both open EPUB files and edit Markdown, to keep 
things on topic. And ostensibly even run Bookbind, although I haven't used it 
that way.)
