Tie-in writers are writers for hire.

They don’t own any of the IP for their creations. All the IP is owned by Paramount.

Star Trek television has directly taken concepts from Treklit for Discovery and Picard without any credit whatsoever to the print authors who created them.

Screenwriters who created guest characters like Locarno are owed some credit and residuals but these are very modest.
