Doesn't really work that way, I'm afraid -- otherwise I'd have gotten to do a bunch of sequels to Ex Machina to fill the "untapped hunger" for post-TMP novels. The reason there's traditionally been far more fiction set in the TOS era and the post-TWOK era than in the post-TMP era is because that's the way the audience's preferences break down. It's not like there's uniform audience interest in all three eras and the publishers are just arbitrarily ignoring one of them. The abundance of books in each era reflects the popularity of each era -- TOS sells best by far, and the later movie era is preferred to the TMP era.
