I wrote and published a novel about a game played in virtual reality in the year 2020 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ZFF6NVK). It came out three weeks ago and has been providing "holiday money" rather than just "beer money" so far.

My grand vision is to create the game in the book for real, to launch in 2020, just like in the book (more info here: solarversia.com/about/). It's had a great reception so far (I've targeted Ready Player One fans) and I'm in the process of bringing on non-execs to Spiralwerks, the company behind the game (which features heavily in the book), and also talking to agents who might want to represent me for a traditional publishing deal. Meeting my first VC next week.

If it wasn't obvious, I'm hoping for a big wave of publicity when Oculus / Morpheus / HTC Vive et al launch next year.

Oh yeah, my London Live interview where I discuss the big vision: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bo0u3C5D-Y

If you know anyone in VR / publishing, I'd love an intro.... :-)
