There's a wonderful piece by Hugh Howey called The Plagiarist about this very thing.
The guy descends into the simulated worlds and copies great works of art from them into our world. He has a girlfriend in one of the worlds that's getting too expensive to run, since they started running simulations in their world...
The Plagiarist. He writes some amazing stories. I read Wool even though I'm not into apocalypse fiction and was hooked immediately but not prepared for the last two thirds of the book, and Shift and Dust in that trilogy were equally as awesome.
A friend lent me the novella The Plagerist by Hugh Howey on kindle and it was incredible. So tight and such a cool concept told in really wonderful language. It's not a full length novel but definitely worth a read! [http://www.amazon.com/The-Plagiarist-Hugh-Howey-ebook/dp/B004ZUZT5W]
