Asher's Bio

Hi all, I'm an 18 year old sixth form student starting my last year of school next year. I have lots to say about sport in particular and enjoy writing. I hope you enjoy lots of editorials from me in the near future.

Hey Asher,

Decided to have some fun with this. It's a humor piece about Survivor for athletes. I had a blast writing it, and I hope you get a good laugh out of it :)

If you get the time, I'd love to hear what you think. If not, no worries.

Hey Asher,

I think the best part of sports is the passion involved, so I wrote an opinionated piece on why I think a perfect athlete is capable of crying, both win or lose. I’d love for you to check it out and let me know what you think. If you’re too busy, no worries.

Thanks, as always, for the support! It’s much appreciated ☺

Hey Asher,

This isn't my article, but you should definitely give it a read if you have some time. Some brilliant writing by one of my favorite writers, Pete McKeown. Hope you like it!

Hey Asher,

I had an awful day today, so I took it out on MLB. Here's my first humor piece on "the worst case scenarios for all 30 teams." If you get the chance, I'd love for you to check it out and let me know what you think.

As always, thanks for the support, and I hope you enjoy the read/makes your day better!

Hey Asher,

Yao Ming has done so much for the game of basketball, that I felt compelled to write a tribute. I'd love for you to take a look and let me know what you think! Again, I hope my passion comes through and it's a good read.

Hey Asher, you commented on one of my tennis articles a while ago.

I know you're probably busy now you're back at college but I worked really hard on this article. Would love for you to read it and give me your feedback.
