==Biography==
Chuck Wendig was hired to write Aftermath after posting a tweet saying he wanted to write for Star Wars. In the tweet, on September 4, 2014, Wendig wrote: "Dear Internet: I wanna write a licensed STAR WARS novel. Please make this happen. *squeezes Internet hard enough to make wishes fall out*" The request was successful, and Aftermath was released exactly one year after the tweet, on September 4, 2015.
He was originally scheduled to write the comic book series Star Wars: Shadow of Vader along with an as-yet-unnanounced book, but the series was canceled following his dismissal from Marvel Comics.
