HOW TO MEET INSANE DEADLINES

When this section applies to real life too....

“There’s no money in poetry, but then there’s no poetry in money either.”— Robert Graves

There are actually some pretty good ideas in this one

What I learned:
I can write a book in a week, but I probably shouldn't.
Not if I want to stay healthy and sane, anyway.

Didn't know he was one of the writers of Resident Evil! Colour me even more intrigued!

When you write tie-ins, your characters aren't really yours.
[one paragraph later]
But your should still create the best characters you can.

Ghostwriting has been around for ages, and publishers don’t consider it fraud, but I’m not so sure they’re right. I’d rather know who wrote the book I’m buying.

How is tie-i n fiction different than fan fiction? The key difference appears in the first sentence of this chapter: officially licensed.

I like that the author asked several other people to way in so he can have different voices in this book.

So basically fan-fic?
"Tie-in fiction was a way to relive a movie you enjoyed or experience new adventures of characters from shows that were cancelled."
