So, you made a thing, and that thing is popular. Suddenly, folks are hounding you to adapt it into a film, TV series, or whatever that they can make money from. And while you like the idea, you're more than a bit worried about Adaptation Decay, and not entirely sure you can trust the execs with your masterpiece. So what do you do? Well, usually you'd have little choice in the matter outside what company you give permission to tamper with your work, after which they'll decide just how much they want you involved. But by some random miracle, you've got quite a bit more leverage than that or said company is surprisingly open to your suggestions. In which case, why do you need someone else to write the adaptation? You're a versatile person, how hard could making the adaptation be? You know what bits are important and what can be cut, and how to make sure your favorite bits stay in. Or perhaps add, alter, or remove parts that you have missed or were unsatisfied with. So you write it yourself. These are the results. Compare Copiously Credited Creator, Directed by Cast Member, Written by Cast Member, Creator Cameo, and Self-Remake. |

The Doctor Who Novelisations have this happen a fair bit, to the point almost half the novelisations are written by the original scriptwriters. Among other examples: Terrance Dicks novelized most of the serials he wrote, also writing junior novels for "Robot" and "The Brain of Morbius". The only serial he didn't novelize was "The War Games" which was written by the serial's co-writer, Malcolm Hulke. Hulke novelized all of his own serials apart from "The Faceless Ones" which was written by Dicks. Douglas Adams is a famous aversion: he insisted that if his serials were to be novelized, he'd do it himself, and then never got around to it in his lifetime. (It didn't help that he occasionally suggested that maybe someone whose original novels were international bestsellers shouldn't be paid the standard Target rate.) Two of his stories were eventually novelized by James Goss (along with an unmade film proposal by Adams, Doctor Who and the Krikkitmen) and the third was novelized by Gareth Roberts, four decades after Adams left Who and almost two decades after he died. Eric Saward wrote the novelizations of all but two of the stories that he wrote, the exceptions being "Earthshock" (written by Ian Marter, who played Fourth Doctor companion Harry Sullivan) and "A Fix With Sontarans" (which never got novelized; it was created as a non-canon crossover with Jim'll Fix It, and the canonically ambiguous Re-Cut made after presenter Jimmy Savile was outed as a serial child predator only came out in 2022). When the first novelizations of new series episodes were released, the ones for "Rose" and "The Day of the Doctor" were written by the episodes' original writers, Russell T. Davies and Steven Moffat, respectively. |

Rolie Polie Olie and George Shrinks were both based on books written and illustrated by William Joyce, who also worked very heavily on the series' development processes, including designing much of the early concept art (he even won a Special Emmy for Outstanding Production Design on Rolie Polie Olie in 1999) and overseeing the shows' scriptwriting as an executive producer. | |

Mokona, the manga's main artist, also oversaw designs for costumes and Clow Cards that were exclusive to the anime. For the anime adaptation of the sequel, Cardcaptor Sakura Clear Card, Ohkawa was the sole writer for all the episodes. | |

The scripts for the Peanuts specials, more often than not, would simply be ripped directly from the comic strips with minimal changes, so Charles Schulz was the lead writer by default. But Schulz had a lot of creative control, often writing any additional material as well, and many of the specials' trademarks — the jazz score, the casting of children, and the simplistic animation style — were his decisions. | |

As mentioned above, he wanted to novelize his Doctor Who episodes but never got around to doing itnote While Adams' laziness is infamous there is evidence that it's more likely he knew his success with Hitchhikers priced him out of being commissioned to write them.. | |

Famously played with with Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, an adaptation of Charlie and the Chocolate Factorynote The title was altered a little bit because of The Vietnam War, where U.S. soldiers used "charlie" to refer to the Viet Cong, and other people of East Asian descent.. Although the screenplay is credited to Roald Dahl, much of his script was altered by ghostwriters, which included the addition of the "gobstopper test" in order to give the movie a villain (Slugworth) and a moral. He hated what had been done to his script so much that he (allegedly) stated in his will that the book's sequel, Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator, would never be adapted into a movie. | |

French author and filmmaker José Giovanni wrote L'Excommunié and directed its 1972 film adaptation, La Scoumoune. The film is actually The Remake of the 1961 Jean Becker film Un nommé La Rocca, which already adapted the novel. Despite the fact Giovanni also wrote that 1961 film, he wasn't satisfied with it and decided to re-adapt it to the screen himself. | |
