2. Spiderman and the Fine Art of Novelization

Spider-Man 3It's nearly impossible to support yourself as a writer. Sometimes it helps to explore unexpected sources for inspiration. Like the movies!

Earlier today, I discovered Peter David, the writer who translated the Spiderman, Spiderman 2, and Spiderman 3 screenplays into paperback novels. I really admire and envy writers like David--he turned his passion for Star Trek and comic books into a sustainable career.

Before you go check out Spiderman 3 at the theaters, go check out David's work at Amazon.com.

If you are interested in exploring the novelization business, I interviewed Christa Faust last year about her work on the novelization of the cult film Snakes on a Plane. She gave us some fantastic advice about how to make a living and explore your favorite stories at the same time. Check it out:

"I came into writing novelizations the same way I came into everything I’ve ever done as a writer; through a series of happy accidents... More than one writer I knew had been contacted by former editor Jay Slater from Black Flame (the publisher who was doing tie-in and novelization projects related to New Line properties like Friday the 13th, Nightmare on Elm Street and Final Destination.)"
