I don't think I'd ever heard of these (which is a shame, I loved "Choose Your Own Adventure" books back when I was younger), and I see there's been a lot of confusion around it, considering one of the series founders was a fellow in the UK named Steve Jackson, who also was involved with publishing SJG content in the UK under Games Workshop, and the US Steve Jackson actually wrote three of the Fighting Fantasy books, but the two are different people. And now SJG is the US publisher, which just makes things even more confusing! "Steve Jackson worked with Steve Jackson on Steve Jackson's series, and Steve Jackson's company also published Steve Jackson's works in the UK. Now Steve Jackson's series is going to be published in the US by Steve Jackson's company."
Solo adventures have been coming out recently for both DFRPG (specifically the Nordland setting, but it wouldn't be too difficult to file the numbers off) as well as The Fantasy Trip (in fact, I think a lot of them are TFT works that are then converted to GURPS). I could potentially see some Fighting Fantasy books converted for those. Douglas Cole's Gaming Ballistic company has been doing a lot in that regard, so you may wish to bring this to his attention (although to my knowledge he currently only has an "in" with the US Steve Jackson, not the UK one - nor with Sir Ian Livingstone, the other chap creating Fighting Fantasy, for that matter).
