Although the revival is an interesting new take, it failed to draw the same level of attention achieved by the original miniseries.Career
Crispin started writing in ,[2] and her career began in As a writer of "tie-in" novels she was known for developing the backgrounds and emotional lives of on-screen characters.[1]
Two of her Star Trek novels—Yesterday's Son and Time for Yesterday—were direct sequels to the third-season episode "All Our Yesterdays", and detail Spock and Zarabeth's son.[3]Yesterday's Son was the first non-novelization Star Trek novel to appear on the New York Times Best Seller list.[4] Her later Star Trek works included the novel Sarek, which takes place after Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country.
Her best-known Star Wars work, The Han Solo Trilogy, chronicles the life of Han Solo prior to Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope.[1] Crispin also wrote the novelizations for The V miniseries[1] and the film Alien Resurrection, as well as Sylvester, a girl and horse film starring Melissa Gilbert.[5]
When an editor working for Disney was seeking an author to write a novel dealing with the backstory of Captain Jack Sparrow, a major character from the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, they contacted Crispin's agent and contracted her to write the book after reading The Han Solo Trilogy, which focused on Han Solo's backstory.[6] According to Crispin herself, it took her three years to write and she did a lot of research on the historical period and the nautical stuff.
She was also given the script for At World's End before the film released, but her book was finished before the script for On Stranger Tides was written.[7][8] The instructions for A. C. Crispin in writing Pirates of the Caribbean: The Price of Freedom were to "stick to historical fact, unless it conflicts with established Pirates of the Caribbean continuity." Crispin made a faithful effort to do this, having done plenty of research, with Under the Black Flag by David Cordingly being one of the four pirate-related books she found herself using the most consistently.[9] When releasing the fifth excerpt of her book, Crispin spoke of how she was privileged to write the scene where Han first beheld&#;and fell for&#;the Millennium Falcon in The Han Solo Trilogy.
She assured fans it was every bit as thrilling to write the scene with Jack Sparrow and the Wicked Wench.[10]The Price of Freedom was published on May 17, [11]
She also created her own StarBridge series of novels, aimed primarily at young readers.[1]
Crispin was Eastern Regional Director,[1] and then Vice President, of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America.[12] With Victoria Strauss, she founded Writer Beware, a "watchdog" group that is part of SFWA that warns aspiring writers about the dangers of scam agents, editors, and publishers.[12] Writer Beware was founded in , and has assisted law enforcement and civil authorities in tracking and shutting down writing scams.[1][13]
On April 19, , Crispin was named the Grandmaster by the International Association of Media Tie-In Writers (IAMTW).[1]
