RE : News: Writer forced to work in order to buy lego.

I've not read any of this guys books, but liked this quote from him:

Lawrence Miles:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/cult/doctorwho/books/telepress/miles/page1.shtml
"I wanted to take time out and work on something a bit more long-term, but
the Lego people have brought out some fantastic new stuff in the last year
and there was just no way I could afford any of the big sets without writing
another book."

Outside SW, I'm not sure what a sci-fi writer would get out of the current
product line...

Well, let's see ... trains? Harry Potter? The toy that dares not say its
name, Bionicle? RCX 2? It would be interesting to know which sets interest a
person with such creative imagination.

Maybe he just wants to build a short T-section of corridor he can view
repeatedly from different angles...
