For all you Twilight Lovers....


Thanks to my friend Raysha for the heads up on this... I thought I'd pass the word on as well. I feel so bad for Stephenie!

This is for all of you who are fans of the Twilight series, and have possibly been anticipating the book Midnight Sun which is Edward's view of things. A partial draft of Midnight Sun was leaked on the Internet. Understandably, Stephenie Meyer is pretty upset and therefore, she is putting it on hold "indefinitely." Because she loves her fans so much, she doesn't want to "drive more people to look for the illegal posting" so, she linked it on her web site.
She said, "I'd rather my fans not read this version of Midnight Sun. It was only an incomplete draft; the writing is messy and flawed and full of mistakes. But how do I comment on this violation without driving more people to look for the illegal posting? It has taken me a while to decide how and if I could respond. But to end the confusion, I've decided to make the draft available here (at the end of this post). This way, my readers don't have to feel they have to make a sacrifice to stay honest. I hope this fragment gives you further insight into Edward's head and adds a new dimension to the Twilight story. That's what inspired me to write it in the first place."
So, if you would like to read the available 264 pages of Midnight Sun, go to

Wow, I didn't know that happened! That stinks for book sales. I'm excited to get on and read it though.
How are you guys doing? Remind me what your cross streets are again for your house? We just sold our house and are moving to either the Cooper/Elliot area or North Mesa off of the 202. I'd love to get together with you guys!

Hey Chelsea! It was so good to see you too! I am going to try to go to that class every week so hopefully I will see you every week now - you better come too:) Anyways, we should totally have play dates at the park once your little guy starts walking. I can't believe you live in my neighborhood and we didn't even know it!
