Hello fellow readers, I decided to write this because I know just how FRUSTRATING it is finding a decent Auslly fan fiction now-a-days.

It literally takes me a good half hour to find one!

If you're tired of reading horrible stories relating to this fandom, then keep reading young one. (Or old one… It works either way)

Disclaimer: *This was not meant to offend any Austin and Ally fan fiction author, or reader. I am just trying to help people out; so if you find this offensive or rude, please don't read*

O1. Read the description. This is probably the best way to figure out if the story is gold or not. If the author can't write a good description, or puts "Sorry I suck at summaries" they will most likely "suck" at writing stories as well. A good author can write a summary with ease, and it usually has an excellent tie with the fan fic. Without giving too much away!

(Ex of horrible summary: austin and ally have been friends forever but what happens when they realize they like each other? will they date? Will he cheat on her with kira? read to find out!)

02. Find out how many reviews/follows it has. Chances are if the review level is low; the story isn't good. BUT this isn't always the case. I've seen some pretty horrible fan fictions with a TON of reviews; it's usually rare but trust me. It does happen.

(Ex: Chapter number: 25 Reviews:6)

03. Examine the story outline! If the author does not indent, and the writing is clustered in one paragraph, most likely the story will be horrible, because the writer doesn't really have a clue what the heck they are doing. *This isn't ALWAYS the case; some users just don't indent because of choice. I have read some pretty great stories that lack paragraph spacing.*

(Ex: Ally and I have always been friends forever and ever and I don't know why I get butterflies now when she walks by. Is it cuz we were meant to be or because I just ate a tuna salad fiveseconds ago? whatever it is I don't really care I just know that I love her and I love her more than pancakes and music and that's really big because you know I love pancakes and music they are my favorite things forever and always. Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah bsdgjsdgkjsfghkdfjhkdfjhdklhjnklgjhkldjhkdfljaghjg jdfgjdfgfgfgfgfgf [Keeps going without spacing])

04. Look at the punctuation! Does the story lack punctuation? Have an excessive use? All these things that may seem microscopic actually matter! (EX of excessive punctuation: why do I think about her ALL the time? I just want to get her out of my head!)

(Ex of lack of punctuation: maybe it wasn't meant to be maybe I should just forget about austin and just go somewhere where I wont get my heart broken im tired of living like a broken girl I just wanna be whole again)

05. If you're looking for a GOOD story to read, look on different Austin and Ally fan fiction user's "Favorite Stories" list. That is how I've found a good amount of good reads, and they are usually the author's "favorite" for a legitimate reason.

I hoped these few tips helped! I really enjoyed making this! Again, I hope no one took offense! I just want to help! If you liked this as much as I did, please review! I am considering making a "How to write Auslly fan fiction"
