Amazon Publishing has licensed the work of Kurt Vonnegut for their Kindle Worlds program, which allows writers to create and sell authorized fan fiction based on the works of participating authors, estates, and packagers. Writers who want to write own stories or novels based on Vonnegut’s worlds and characters will be able to do so once the submission platform for this license goes live in August.
