The writing environment of SBH and ASR in general is one that is often called "shared fiction"- fiction whose development is shared by members of a team instead of being an individual process.  This places less emphasis on the individual writer and more on the unit as a whole.  
The writing environment of ''Serenity'' and ASR in general is one that is often called "shared fiction"- fiction whose development is shared by members of a team instead of being an individual process.  This places less emphasis on the individual writer and more on the unit as a whole.
