We speak to Cavan Scott, an extraordinary writer who writes on licence, meaning that he is hired to write for licenced intellectual properties such as Star Wars and Doctor Who. If you've ever written fan fiction and dream of writing for a big franchise then you'll find plenty of inspiration in this week's episode.

In this episode you will discover…

  • How the world of tie-in and licensed fiction works
  • How to work to a brief or with a series bible
  • How copyright and public domain works
  • How good old-fashioned determination and persistence pays off with an extraordinary career
