- "Galactica was winding down. Caprica was starting right around that period. I got a call that George Lucas wants to meet with [me] about a possible series. So I meet with George … and producer Rick McCallum, and at that point George wanted to do a live-action Star Wars TV series … What he wanted to do is he wanted to gather a group of writers together, kind of an international group of writers. So I was one of the Americans and there were some from the UK and from Australia [and] New Zealand, and he would bring us together up at Skywalker Ranch for like a long weekend … We would go for these long weekends, or a week or something, at a time with George in a conference room at Skywalker Ranch and break these stories. Then we would go off for like another six weeks out by ourselves, write the scripts, then regather, talk about notes, do another group of scripts."
