WHAT THE STREAMS UNIVERSE IS
The Streams Universe is a shared creative system.
It gives writers a starting point—a story, a structure, a spark—and the freedom to take it anywhere.
​
WHAT YOU CAN DO
-
Rewrite the original story
• Change characters, worlds, tone, or outcomes
• Write sequels, prequels, or alternate timelines
• Jump into any point in the story chain
• Create companion stories
• Publish and sell your work
• Build merchandise from your version -
Most importantly, whatever you create your own.
SELL YOUR STORY
Publish your book
Keep the money FROM ALL BOOK SALES.
I only ask for 20% of licensing or any merchandising.

HOW IT WORKS
-
Read the license
-
Read the original story
-
Choose where you want to jump in
-
Write your version
-
Publish it
-
Build from it
That’s it.
WHAT STAYS PROTECTED
• The Streams name and brand
• The original underlying work
• The shared system stays open to all creators
No one can lock the door behind them.
THE SIMPLE RULE
Create freely.
Own your version.
If you use the Streams name or build directly from the original story in a commercial way, you participate in the system.
WHY THIS EXISTS
Most people want to write… but don’t know where to start.
This gives you a world to step into.
Not to follow.
Not to copy.
But to transform.
​
The Streams Universe is an open creative system with shared participation and revenue alignment.
