About Ashley Hamershock

Ashley Hamershock considers herself fantastically fortunate to have called writing her career for more than a quarter century. Newspapers. Wire services. Magazines. Blogs. Websites. She has covered everything from presidents and celebrities to food and travel. In her free time, she explores the far corners of the world and Colorado’s back roads with her husband and two adventurous sons. And she reads. Simple things are the best things: steaming black coffee, wine with friends and unchecked laughter. www.seasonedscribe.com
