you just want to write as a hobby!? I think you could make a career out of writing!. You have so much talent!. although one point!. im not sure if i like one sentence;
Thank you Mr Smedley," replied Asher Monroe entering the office, taking the seat he was gestured to and refusing the coffee offered to him!.

maybe it could be!.!.!.!.,"replied Asher Monroe while entering the office and taking the seat he was gested to and refusing the coffee offered to him!.!.!.!.it flows a little better!.!.!. just trying to help!?

great story by the way!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Not too shabby so far!. I'm not too fond of some of the names, as they seem to be names that one might read in a Goosebumps book!. This could be what you want, though, as it helps with the comedic effect that you seem to be going for!.

There are two or three places where you seem to be missing a comma, or one is misplaced!. For instance, "Asher I believe your friend Nate Oakley, !.!.!." should be , "Asher, I believe your friend Nate Oakley, !.!.!." but otherwise not badly written!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

it's actually okay!.!.!. maybe you should try to fit in some background information on Asher like what he was doing previously as a job, what kind of person he is, how he felt before he went to Mr!. Smedley's office, somewhat like an exposition!. Besides that it kept my interest!. It made me think of the movie wanted with James McAvoy and Angelina JolieWww@QuestionHome@Com
