Ashton lives in a cabin in a forest in Upstate New York with his family and a dog. One of his hobbies is carving things out of wood. It might be surprising, but writing is just another one of his hobbies and not his full-time job. His main job is researching cancer. He tests different drugs to see which ones can help stop the disease. In addition to his research, Ashton teaches advanced science classes to graduate students at a university.
