Ras Ashcroft was born in 1987 and currently
lives in the UK.
He started work on his first novel at the age of 10,
about two boys who found themselves trapped in a haunted amusement park. He
didn't quite finish it, because of school commitments and being unable to find
a way to write the main characters out of a deadly situation involving
wise-cracking skeletons.
He continued to work on short humorous fiction stories
for the next 14 years until finally deciding to publish his first book, a
humorous parody guide called 'Supervillain: The Concise Guide'.
Tell us 5 random things about you the person, not the
author:
1. I’ve lived in a couple of areas around the UK from
Birmingham and Manchester to various areas around the outskirts of London. I’ve
even spent a few years living in India. We sure loved moving!
2. Since graduating from University, I’ve been growing a
small business and I love trying out new entrepreneurial ideas that take my
fancy.
3. I love cricket, football and badminton.
4. As a kid, I almost fell into a septic tank after I
stepped on the cover and it gave way.
5. If I was handed a million dollars, I would hide the
money and orchestrate a massive scavenger hunt to find it, winner takes all.
Participating in the hunt would cost $10. I would then invest all of those
earnings in lottery tickets or the stock market.
