Hey, I just got back after being gone for a little more than a month and see this. I actually am in the middle of writing my own book and would actually enjoy writing a Dust 514 story. Though I would need all the facts and permission from CCP. If anyone cares to tell me the whole truth that is.

To be completely honest, it would be smarter to ask True Adamance since he knows the lore better than I do. And I think I can only start by next summer since I'm still knee deep in detail and grammatical corrections. With the summer empty though, I will have ample time. And I have to ask certain people if they want me to portray their likelihood in a book. Don't want to start legal issues over that.

No one person can give you all of the info needed to write the series. And I don't think you don't need permission, right? Because first of all, these are game character's names and not people's real identities. Not to mention, that you would be creating a story for a series and not a biographical/historical retelling.
A C&D can still apply to intellectual properties. Such as characters, concepts, names, bios etc etc. I will think about doing it but will need to get in contact with you or more about getting all the info. And lore that still implies about getting the little stuff correct like planets and Corp names and stuff to that effect. I was going to first finish up and then start a Fallout book. We'll see how this turns out. I most likely won't do it since it will only maximum sell 500~ copies. Not that attractive to an author.

I'll have to get permission of CCP. If everything turns out well, I'll do it. Will have to hire a producer and editor though. And find a publisher but whatever. This is all still speculation. I do have other work in front of me currently.

By all means. Take the wheel if you have the resource to do it.

Which is the entire problem of letting a person who has been a part of major corps do the writing. If i had footage, I'd just make a video. I actually already have several scripts written up about 'dusts' history, with some decent footage, special effects, a little movie editing magic - I could not only tell a story, but re-create the moments. But I'm still amateur, barely working with Audacity.
If you can, by all means.

But I'm still amateur, barely working with Audacity. I'm going to make an observation you may or may not appreciate but it's for your benefit. You seem like you have the ability and creativity to accomplish many different things, but you do nothing. You claim to not be a leader and yet know how people should be led. Sounds to me like you are at war with yourself and what you want. Why not actually put your devices out there and see how they fair? You are only knocking yourself out as a contender by doing nothing and it kind of gets annoying to hear all this product you have without actually seeing the merchandise. Because obviously if you have something that is great, we all want to see it and support you.
He was a pretty successful CEO for a time until sh*t hit the fan for him.
