A Goodreads user asked Ashley Poston:

Hi, once again, I was wondering if you have any tips and tricks up your sleeve about writing your own fanfiction/original story? How do you create your own characters? Plot twists? Good beginning? Good ending? etc. Thanks. R.J

Ashley Poston I would just say to write the story that's in your heart. Write something inherently for you--write the story you want to read. And read voraciously, study how other authors open a story and end one, how they craft characters, how they arc a plot. And most of all? Just have fun with it! <3
