    Why did a script writer keep rights to any of the characters he made for a TV show? That is madness. What a racket the WGA must have going! I assume that the Trek producers had their arm twisted in some way for that to happen.

    I'm a commercial writer. As in, a writer for commerce, not of commercials. I do not work in a union. Anything I write on the job--my salaried day job, or some contract on my own time--belongs to the company I wrote it for.

    If I need some more characters and plots, I WILL MAKE THEM UP. No idea is so precious that it can't be sold!

    Hollywood should can those union crybabies. There are plenty of people who can do the job.
