Day 17 of 365 days of blogging. It’s Leya once again taking over. I finished my read through of You’ve Got Bookmail this afternoon and sent it to beta readers. Since I introduced you to the female main character, Kassandra, the other day, I thought I would introduce you to her love interest, Asher. He is an absolute cinnamon roll, and we love cinnamon rolls around here, as you can see with the cover photo of this blog post.

  • What is your name?
    My name is Asher McNeil, ma’am.
  • How old are you?
    I just turned 34.
  • What do you do for a living? Are you self-employed, or do you work for someone else?
    I work for the post office in my small town.
  • How long have you done this job?
    It’s been over five years now.
  • Is this what you always planned to do, or did you fall into it?
    Absolutely not!
  • How do you feel about it? 
    I do enjoy it, but it was not my plan. I will say, the job has gotten far more interesting the last couple weeks.
  • Would you rather be doing something else? If so, what would it be?
    I want to be building and renovating houses. My degree is in architectural engineering.
  • If you’d rather be doing something else, what stops you? Is it money? Is it pressure from your family? Is it your own lack of self-confidence? Or does some other thing prevent you from doing what you want to do?
    I wish I could say for sure. Something happened when I came back home after college, and I just never got that spark back.
  • What would you have to change in your life in order to do that thing you’d rather do?
    Nothing in my life really prevents me from pursuing that dream, or at least doing something that moves me closer.
  • Does this change depend on someone else, or does it depend on you?
    It’s all on me.
  • What is your life like at the moment?
    If others were to look at it, they might say it’s boring, but I’m content. I work and spend time at home watching home improvement shows.
  • Are you married, single, or in a relationship?
    I’m single. I occasionally date, but I haven’t had a relationship in a while.
  • Is there anyone you’re interested in at the moment?
    There might be, but I’m not going to say anything and mess it up.
