You'd most likely have to contact EA and get them to agree to it since they still own UO and all the rights to it.
I hope I'm in it!

If you just want to do fanfic, you can probably just do free fanfic on one of the fanfiction sites (like fanfiction dot net) and EA wouldn't bat an eye.
Trying to do it for pay (such as selling on Amazon) just isn't gonna happen without a contract between you and EA.

To be published? Like in a book? I would guess that you don't. If you just mean fan fiction or something, if you aren't selling it I don't see why anyone would ever care about the rights.
The official in game fiction? I don't know if they pay someone to write that or it's just someone on the team somewhere who cranks out out or what.
*edit* Ah, yeah seems that EM Malachi writes all of the official fiction for UO. So if you wanted to write official UO fiction, I would imagine the first step is becoming an EM.

Just write it and spam it in Gen Chat......EA will never stop you :>)
I'll start.
I was sitting at the bank for 4 hours straight when someone came up to talk to me. I ignored them because I am way too important. After a few more hours of bank sitting, I decided to go to and macro unattended in the busiest spot in the game for 3 to 5 hours. It was really annoying for anyone that was trying to have a conversation but it's not like anyone can do anything about it so I continued for another hour. Boredom quickly took hold so I decided to go to the stable and get my favorite pet. My pet and I went to the only dungeon that still has decent loot. I said all kill about 50 times and made sure to stay invisible for the 20 minutes that I was there. I didn't get a drop so I went back to the bank to ignore people for the rest of the day. I will complain about not getting a drop later.
I'm sure my publisher will be super interested in this sample. Y'all can just pm me to preorder your copy. I only take cash sent in the mail as payment.
