I never think, for example, when I’m working on page 230 of chapter 15, that this character might bear some relationship to a character in Star Wars or Alien. When I’m doing a novelization aside from my own original work I completely immerse myself in that world and everything else gets blocked out. What’s it like approaching franchises with huge mythologies?

You’ve had a hand in many recognizable sci-fi franchises, including Star Wars and Star Trek. There weren’t six screenplays sitting around ready to put into production.

The story of Star Wars evolved in George’s mind as the films were made. I was basically writing my own Star Wars story as a spin-off and having fun doing that.

So it was just: There would be this sequel book that would be designed to be filmed on a low budget. When you’re there at the time you’re not aware of what the future ramifications are going to be. Did you have any idea of that particular book’s impact on what would become the Expanded Universe? Īfter the novelization of the first movie, you wrote Splinter of the Mind’s Eye.
