About James Ashman

I write books of the fantasy, heroic, slice-of-life, and/or adventure types. So far. By choice, I self-publish my works. I'm an author who loves fantastic stories. I have a penchant for foreign works, and don't hesitate to learn about something new. I've grown up in the technology generation, watching that world change faster each year. togetherwithsilver@gmail.com

Desk and Bookshelf

Posted on October 16, 2011 by James Ashman

Moving time, such a lovely time. The worst offenders that could make the upcoming lack of apartment have been dealt with, namely a 5ft long 3ft high desk and a 6ft by 3ft bookshelf. All the electronics I can probably … Continue reading →
