Build Real Revenue from Someone Else’s Fictional World

Learn how to create real income, ethically and legally, by building around a fictional world you didn’t create.
Building Real Revenue from Someone Else’s Fictional World is one of many practical, no-fluff guides available from Streams of Income and Dr. David Powers
---
Over the years, I’ve helped clients (and myself) build a lot of different streams of income, but this is one of my favorite approaches because it flips a common myth on its head:
You don’t have to be the original creator to create something valuable.
Think about how many people have made serious money building cases, apps, training, accessories, and content for the iPhone.
But they didn’t invent the iPhone.
This guide shows you how to do the same thing with fictional worlds, using my novel The Midwife and the Medic and the expanding Fractured Atlas universe as real, working examples.
This approach:

• Helps you tap into existing demand
• Works with derivative, active, and passive income
• Integrates cleanly with other streams you already have
• Keeps you less dependent on social media algorithms
• Can be started with zero audience

This is not a vague, theory-heavy guide.
Yes, it’s concise, but that’s intentional. I cut the fluff and built this using my Rapid Skill Acquisition approach, so you can move faster and actually do something with it.
Inside, you’ll learn:

• Why this works
• Where it works best
• How to start with almost no resources
• How to scale it responsibly
• How to stay on the right side of legal and ethical guardrails
• How to build long-term leverage inside a shared fictional universe

You’ll also see real examples from my own projects, including guides, media, merch, and even physical products tied to the Fractured Atlas world.
And because this is something I actively use, I’m available for coaching and brainstorming if you want help explaining ideas or mapping your first stream.
If you’ve ever looked at a book, movie, or fictional universe and thought, “I could build something around this”, this guide shows you exactly how to do it.
No hype.
No shortcuts.
Just real streams of income built the smart way.
