Få svar på några Twilight frågor

Det finns ju många saker man undrar om Twilight. Små detaljer, tankar, Alice och Edwards inre dialoger…

På TwilightMoms har jag hittat en lång intervju, där läsare fått ställa sina frågor till Stephenie.

Jag kommer posta lite utdrag från den intervjun!

Enjoy!

Viktigaste frågan kanske? När föll Edward för Bella?

Q: Did Edward ever watch Bella during those six weeks of silence or was he trying to be strong and leave her alone? When did he realize that he was falling for her?

SM: Edward did not watch Bella in her home or outside of school during the time that he was ignoring her.
He was trying very, very hard to forget her existence.
He already knew, thanks to Alice, that there was a great chance that he was going to impact Bella’s life in a negative way.
He was trying as hard as he could to change the future. He was very aware of her when he had to be near her in school.

It was during this time of surreptitious watching–analyzing her every word and expression, everything everyone else said to her and thought about her–that he fell in love with her.

The host- svenskt forum

Sen vi fick reda på att The Host (Genom dina ögon) ska bli film har flera fans blivit sjukt taggade. Om ni som svenska fans vill hålla er lite informerade skulle jag vilja tipsa om ett nygjort forum, http://thehostmovie.egetforum.se/, där Cassandra är skaparen. De flesta känner till henne genom att hon är moderator för TS forum, TwilightMovie@Bdb och nu har hon även skaffat ett forum för oss The Host fans!

JAG är medlem där, jag tycker du borde bli det med!
Ha det bra allesammans!

Stephenie Meyer lika glad som vi

Steph är lika glad som vi fans över filmrättigheterna för the Host!

I’m so excited to be working with Nick Weschler, and Steve and Paula Mae Schwartz to bring The Host to a visual format. They’ve all been a dream to work with, so lovely and collaborative, and I feel like we’re in a really good place to make a great movie together. And then to have Andrew Niccol writing and directing? Truly awesome. If you’ve never seen Gattaca, go watch it now. One of my favorite movies of all time. It’s such a great example of character driven science fiction, which is ideal for The Host, no? I’m having an absolute blast imagining different dream casts, which I would post if people didn’t take my silly blogs so seriously these days. I’m looking forward to seeing the cast lists you come up with in the fansite forums, and if any of them match mine.

So, very exciting. Yay Host!

XO
Steph

Det dyker ju upp en massa Dreamcast nu på webben.

Populärast är Jensen Ackles (från serien Supernatural) som Jared

och Sofia Bush (från One Three Hill) som Melanie.

Vem vill ni se som huvudkaraktärer i ‘the host’?

20 saker om Stephenie Meyer.

Hittade den här listan på 20 saker om Stephenie Meyer när jag googla lite ;)

-She’s a Mormon. This inspires a lot of her writing and how she acts

-She had no prior writing experience before she wrote Twilight.

-She went to Brigham Young University and studied English

-Although she majored in English, she studied literature, not creative writing

-She has three sons: Gabe, Seth, and Eli

-The idea for Twilight came to her in a dream about a vamp and a girl in a meadow, talking. This dream became Chapter 13 of Twilight, Confessions

-She wrote Twilgiht in about 3 months

-She only told her older sister, Emily that she was writing.

-She didn’t plan to get it published, just wrote for fun, but after she was done Emily persuaded her to get it published.

-She had known her husband, Pancho (his real name is Christiaan), since she was four. About twenty (you may have to check that) years later, they first spoke. Nine months later they were married.

-Before writing Twilight, she was a stay at home mom. A lot of people ask her what she did, and she said ‘I scrapbooked!’

-She is a huge fan of Muse. The band that she gets Alice concert tickets to is Muse.

-She also likes Linkin Park, which is the band that Bella’s stepdad gave her the CD to. Other bands she likes are Coldplay, Ok Go, and the Fray.

-Eclipse knocked Harry Potter off the bestseller list when it came out

- A lot of Bella’s character was based off of her, she said.

-Her name came from her father (Stephen + ie =Stephenie)

Nu vet ni lite mer om Stephenie ;)

Anklagelse mot Stephenie

Hittade en artikel på DN om att Stephenie Meyer anklagas för plagiat (kopiering från någon annans verk). Så här stog det:

Det är den senaste boken i vampyrserien, ”Så länge vi båda andas” som är i hetluften, skriver The Guardian.

Författaren Jordan Scott hävdar att Meyers bok i flera avseenden är ”slående och påtagligt lik” hennes egen bok ”Nocturne”. Hon kräver både ekonomisk ersättning och att Meyers förlag stoppar vidare utgivning av boken.

Meyers förlag tillbakavisar kraven som grundlösa, och hänvisar bland annat till att man inte ens fått ett exemplar av boken och inte kände till vare sig den eller författaren plagiat-anklagelserna dök upp.

hmm… :S

Stephenie Meyer har gått och blivit stämd [kan innehålla spoliers från BD]

Straitstimes.com postade nyligen en artikel som sade att Jordan Scott stämt Stephenie Meyer – för att snott delar utav hennes bok ”The Nocturne”.

AUTHOR of the Twilight series of books, Stephenie Meyer, is being sued by a woman who says Meyer copied her work, said media reports on Thursday.Jordan Scott is claiming that Meyer’s book, Breaking Dawn, is based on her own book, The Nocturne.

Scott wrote the book when she was 15 years old and it was published in 2006 reported entertainment website TMZ.

According to Scott, the books ”show striking, articulable and substantial similarities in the… plot lines, themes, dialogue, mood, setting, pace, characters, sequence of events, ideas and other similarities.”

TMZ has previously reported on the story, listing the similarities claimed by Scott, who sent Meyer a detailed letter stating the same claims.

Some of the scenes Scott says have been copied include a post-wedding sex scene, and a scene involving the death of a main character’s wife, said TMZ.

TMZ was told by Meyer’s representative: ”The claim that Breaking Dawn by Stephenie Meyer somehow infringes on an alleged book by someone named Jordan Scott is completely without merit.

”Neither Stephenie Meyer nor her representatives had any knowledge of this writer or her supposed book prior to this claim,” they told TMZ.

However Scott has now decided to pursue her claims and is taking Meyer to court.

Alltså, den här Jordin hävdar att Stephenie snott lite ideér från hennes bok – som blev publicerad 2006-, bland annat ”bröllops-sex” (Om man tänker efter, hur många har INTE sex på sin smekmånad?).

Hursomhelst postades artikeln idag, så jag har ingen aning om hur länge detta pågått, eller hur mycket sanning som ligger i detta.

StephenieMeyer.com uppdaterad!

Våran kära Stephenie Meyer har uppdaterat sin egna hemsida www.stepheniemeyer.com och berättat om vad hon har gjort denna sommaren!

Hey everybody! I hope you all had a great summer. I’m sorry I don’t update more, but it’s crazy how busy you can be without really having anything to update about. I decided to do an end of the summer recap like I did last year—just the books and music and movies I enjoyed most. I love to share good stuff.

I also got an early look at a book I’ve been eagerly awaiting: Cathing Fire , the sequel to Suzanne Collins’ phenomenal The Hunger Games . It not only lived up to my high expectations, it surpassed them. It’s just as exciting as The Hunger Games, but even more gut wrenching, because you already know these characters, you’ve already suffered with them. Suzanne takes the story places I wasn’t expecting, and she’s never afraid to take it to very hard places. Stunning. You won’t sleep when you’re reading this one. It hits

shelves September 1st. I suggest beginning in the early morning and clearing your calendar for the day.

And finally movies. Mostly when I get out to a movie, it’s a kid’s movie. So Pixar’s Up was the highlight of my summer. And then this Saturday I went to see an actual grown-up people movie, yay! Admittedly, I went to see the New Moon trailer on the big screen (yes, I’m a total dork. Who cares? It was worth it). But then I stayed to see Bandslam because the reviews were so good, and I was glad I did. With my hopeless love of music coupled with my total lack of musical ability, I really dug Will. He’s my hero right now. It had a good soundtrack, as one might expect, a lot of very quotable one-liners, and it turned upside down some of those lame female-interaction stereotypes. It’s a good time.

A new dawn

I oktober (den 20:e) ska det släppas ut en ny bok av Ellen Hopkins. Den ska innehålla favoritdikter och disskutioner av Stephenies The Twilight Saga. T ex. Bör Bella har valt Edward eller Jacob? Hur mycket kontroll har Meyers vampyrer och varulvar verkligen över sina egna liv? Insamlingen går också längre: Är Edward en romantisk eller en (riktigt varmt) SOCIOPAT? Hur Quileute varulvar jämföra med andra Native American varg myter? Vad gör Twilight serien har gemensamma med Shakespeare? ” 

New_Dawn(6)

Vill ni ha den? :)
