Q&A with author Ashley Poston Why do you think we gravitate to fairy tale retellings? There’s something timeless in fairy tales that keep bringing us back to them. But as we evolve, our fairy tales evolve, too. We don’t just want to read about a girl who wears glass slippers anymore, but a girl who abandons her heels and asks the prince to dance for a change. Is Starfield based off any particular sci-fi show? I wanted Starfield to be a long-running series that broke the mold in syndicated television, so I looked to my favorite scifi TV series, Star Trek, for inspiration. For its time, The Original Series was ground-breaking, with the most diverse cast of any show of that era. You’re a self-described fangirl—what do you geek out over? Everything! Books, movies, TV shows, anime—actually, I got my start writing fanfic! I’ve seen every episode of Star Trek multiple times, I can quote Beauty and the Beast’s opening monologue by heart, and I’ve read Howl’s Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones at least forty-two times.
