The first written episode of Star Wars was ghostwritten by Alan Dean Foster, basing the plot from the screenplay written by George Lucas, which was like hundreds of pages (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_W...Luke_Skywalker)

Star Wars: From the Adventures of Luke Skywalker is the novelization of the 1977 film Star Wars, ghostwritten by American author Alan Dean Foster, but credited to director George Lucas. It was first published on November 12, 1976, by Ballantine Books, several months before the release of the film. In later years, it was republished under the title Star Wars: A New Hope to reflect the retroactive addition of a subtitle to the film in 1981.
It's first fanfic imho would had been "Splinter of the Mind's Eye", I'd liked those; didn't have readed many others, btw.

As for fanfic, at the appendix from the book I'd just finished it mentions Marion Zimmer Bradley for her Avalon serie: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marion_Zimmer_Bradley
