I have lots of original characters and stories in my head (that's what I meant by the 'original novels') but if I could write B7, I'd have a ready-made audience, much as I do now. People who write Star Trek, Star Wars, and Doctor Who novels have that, plus marketing resources, but I don't fancy writing for any of those. I'd rather do B7 or my own stuff.

NZ is very hard for writers to break into. I believe there are on-line publishing houses though, esp for SF. I really should check those out. I know indirectly of two people who've been published that way.

I suppose I need the time and the confidence.

Well I'm doing my best to help you with the latter. :)
