From Forever in the Meadow
As a reader who has a love-hate relationship with Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight Saga, I was still stunned and disappointed to find out about the recent controversy surrounding Midnight Sun. Midnight Sun, Twilight from Edward’s perspective, was to be Meyer’s next (and possibly last) contribution to the four-part Twilight Saga. Ravenous fans have been looking forward to this book for ages, and now, as of August 28, 2008, Meyer says on her website that she is putting the project “on hold indefinitely.”
Why? A partial first draft of the book was leaked on the Internet recently by someone Meyer describes as a “trusted individual” with “no malicious intent.” Needless to say, things got out of hand. The leaked copy spread like wildfire, and Meyer responded on her website Thursday, clearly hurt by the infringement of her trust (and her legal rights). In answer to the question of what will happen to Midnight Sun now, she says, ”In any case, I feel too sad about what has happened to continue working on Midnight Sun, and so it is on hold indefinitely.”
I can’t say that I’ve ever heard of something like this happening before. Sure, manuscripts are leaked all the time (many of them fake), but I have never heard of a leak actually preventing an author from finishing a book. This will certainly be a cautionary tale for fans. We may never know who leaked the manuscript or exactly why, but it is ironic that one person’s zealousness to get their hands on Midnight Sun will now make it so that millions never get a chance to read the entire story. What a devastating loss for Meyer, her fans and for her story. Now Edward’s perspective will never be told.
This also raises new questions about intellectual property rights and the Internet. As a blogger, I obviously embrace the Web as a dynamic space for idea sharing and community building, but Midnight Sun is just another example of how one dishonest individual can ruin things for the community. Really, this whole fiasco is a sad moment for Twilight fans and for the Internet community as a whole.
*Thanks to Teen Troves for first alerting me to this debacle.

I don’t blame SM for not finishing the book. I wouldn’t want to deal with all the leaks and stuff either. To have something that’s apart of you, like a story, and just have people abuse that, what’s the point of going on with it? They obviously don’t respect what you do or your work. I would say it’s time to move on to something new. Although I won’t hesitate to say that I’m disappointed that I won’t be able to see that book published. I was looking forward to another Edward Cullen fix!!

Maybe Steph can have more time to focus on a Jacob spin-off now
Sep 5, 2008 at 12:00 am
This is horrible news, especially to those who lurve Edward Cullen. But I’m glad she decided to post the draft online, to lessen the distress of fans. But she MIGHT just do it ^_^
A spinoff of Jake would be lovely <:D

I find it a disappointment that Stephanie Meyer wont be publishing Midnight Sun. Keep hoping I’m not understanding the meaning of indefinitly…lol…and hoping that her feelings of betrayal (which is understandable I might add) will soon bypass and she will realize how her fans HAVE been loyal. It was the selling of her Twilight Saga that got her the point of motion picture and I noticed in Entertainment Weekly that Breaking Dawn is still holding it’s #1 spot. Stephenie Meyer is an extremely talented author. I keep reading the Twilight Saga. I would love to know Edwards perspective. I have so many questions to what goes on in Edwards mind….like the electric current in Twilight to what he thought of Bella when he changed her. I doubt if she will write that far, but all the same…I want to know his viewpoint. So Stephenie (if you ever read this)…please don’t let your fans pay for what one person did. Look at all the other links and comments…EVERYONE is anxious to read more on Edwards side!

err .. i want to read

Everyone keeps saying the book will never be published. But, Im putting faith into SM. I don’t think she can hold out for long. She is what, over 30? She can’t keep up this childish charade. The same thing happened with J.K.Rowling, and guess what, she finished her book, published it, and ended the series with a fantastic ending. SM, if you’re listening, which I highly doubt since if you were you would realize that what you are doing is completely unethical and childish, since you are punishing everyone, not just the person who leaked half your book. Can’t you just write the other 12 chaps, publish it, and make everyone happy? It would make you feel better. All that money. Ya know? Not that you are a gold digger, but the only reason SM is actin so melodramatic is probs cuz she wants to hold out til someone with a lotta money tells her to stop. Well, you heard my view. I love the Twilight series, no matter how poorly written it is, and I would like it if Midnight Sun was published. I want to hear Edward’s view just as much as everyone else. So please SM, stop. Write. Publish. Be happy. Be rich. And thank you for creating a lovable concept. Oh, and fire your editor. Peace.

maybe she just didnt want to finish and she leaked it herself .. maybe it was to much work for her…or to much pressure on her. i dunno but dont leave us a partial to read.. i mean she knew a real fan couldnt resist reading it if she post its… thats like giving someone a peice of cake and saying.. take one bite…..i mean i wouldnt have gone looking for it ….. but she post its and im completey emotionally mute because of it.. my fav book series ever.. is not just incomplete.. its horrible … i mean she should just finish it for the fans… cause we love her story.. and edward .. the complexity . i want to see it through his eyes.. i have too
Dec 20, 2008 at 4:48 am
I find really disappointing that this book Midnight sun is put on hold indefinitely.I´ve been willing for this book.It would probably be sold fastly so please I beg to please publish this book!!!Seriously I would go nutts if it´s not like this.I want to see things through his eyes.It´s the first i have an interest on a whole series.Ilove Edward and i have to now how he saw this .PLEASE PLEASE STEPH do it for us,the fans ,we would appreciate a lot trust me! PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!!
Dec 29, 2008 at 11:47 pm
Stephanie Meyer created a world we all love.
i really hope she will continue with midnight sun, i know she is hurt and upset and that she probably has no more enthusiasm to write. She should finish this for all for fans, all the millions of people who love her work and stuck with Bella and Edward until the end. I would really like to know what is going through Edward’s head when he they are in the meadow, and when he is racing to save Bella from James, i feel like i’m about to explode with the need of this! Bella always did the selfless thing, she lived for her father and mother when she most wanted to die, now Steph should write for her fans, just twelve more chapters to finish the story b/c it’s cruel to take something like this away from us. When i heard it was never to be published, i really felt like i’d been punched in the chest. PLEASE steph, finish this for me, for your fans why should we be punished when all we’ve done is stay loyal to you until the very end. I will not read the rough draft from her site b/c i know that when it is done, i will just want more. It is like someone holding a huge piece of your favorite food in front of you and saying you can only have one bite, but that they are going to keep the unfinished bit infront of you for the REST OF YOUR LIKE!! the book MUST be published, it MUST (sob).
Jan 2, 2009 at 4:04 pm
i to understand why she is not publishing it but whoever in the hell leaked thank you for ruining it for every twilight fan whoever you are you are not a true twiligt fan you were priflished enuogh for her to allow you and a few others to preread to see if it was good enough i hope you read this because you are now the most hated person in the twilight community and the people who put it on there website you are just as guuilty and if you havent read it leak yet dont and if you deside not to than you ARE A TRUE TWILGHT FAN
Jan 2, 2009 at 11:23 pm
Does anyone know for sure weather or not Stephanie Meyer is going to finish midnight sun? On he website it says…. “”June 2008 Update: In response to the outrageous number of emails that I have received with questions concerning Midnight Sun, I talked to Stephenie this weekend and she asked me to let everyone know that Midnight Sun is her next project. She has not yet finished writing it (and there is no timeline set up, so we all need to put a lot of effort into being patient for a while longer), but she is definitely still planning on having it published. And, after Breaking Dawn comes out, Stephenie will have much more time to focus on writing Midnight Sun.”" As you can tell that was an update from June of 2008 and i cant seem to find anymore about it. I would highly appriciate it if sombody e-mailed me at j_hulia@yahoo.com and let me know.
Jan 7, 2009 at 4:11 am
Julia also on the website it mentions that the leak happened in august of 2008. That was a june post before all of this mess happened. I know everyone is sad and I’m sure most of the twilight fans read the posted copy that stephenie put on her site. I have not read any of the midnight sun because I don’t want to be left hanging in the end. I feel that of you were a true twilight fan you would not read it at all and just abide her rights as an author. I know we are eager for more just as I am. I know its not fair for us to be punished for that persons stupidity. But its stephenies decision whether to continue it or not. But I do hope she does think about finishing the twilight saga in the (near) future.
Jan 11, 2009 at 1:03 am
Okay, I really love the Twilight saga, and while finishing Breaking Dawn, I constantly wondered if she would ever come out with a fifth book. Yes, Midnight Sun, she’s going to publish that, I hope. I might sound obssessed here, but Stephanie Meyer is an amazing author, her words in the book are unbelievably great. Every book she wrote so far is fantastic. I read the leak for Midnight Sun, and of course, we are left hanging. I dont think she would leave us hanging like that unless she was going to finish it book. Would she ever continue writing books after Midnight Sun? I know she can’t write her whole life, but I hope she ends her last book, even if its Midnight Sun, with something to remember and a happy ending. I hope she finishes the saga in the future.
Jan 29, 2009 at 12:22 am
I think she should continue it. Its really worth it because even though i’m just 11 i have read the twilight sega. this is the last book!
Jan 29, 2009 at 12:48 pm
it’s just so sad to know that my daughter and i (along with zillions of fans) won’t be able to read midnight sun in the very near future. but (fingers crossed), we’re still hoping that SM is going to change her mind and continue writing it. i heard it’s really good. so what if she changes some things so long as she publishes the last book, right? GO MIDNIGHT SUN!!! GO STEPH!!!
Jan 29, 2009 at 10:08 pm
i think that stephanie meyer should finish the book. i really enjoy the twilight saga and im anxious for more. i also think she should make a story about how jake and renesme end up! ill be really on the lookout for tha one!!
Jan 29, 2009 at 11:16 pm
i can’t believe that someone would do this!!! i finished the whole twilight series (so far) and I’m outraged!!!! i really want her to finish the book! without twilight, I’m nothing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i also hope that they make a new moon movie, an eclipse movie, and a breaking dawn movie!! i love edward
Jan 30, 2009 at 6:35 am
she’s writing it now yayyyyyyyyyyyyy
i’m so happy
the first 12 chappers of her draft so far are right here because she posted them on her website shes so nice
Jan 30, 2009 at 6:36 am
there her website check it out http://www.stepheniemeyer.com
Jan 30, 2009 at 7:35 am
Stephenie, if ure readin this…(which i highly highly doubt…)the all i wana say is that dont stop writing midnight sun. i completely understand how u feel but discontinuing midnight is not gna help anybody!
ure fans will me really really upset about it!.. i am one of ure fans,and m gona really be very sad if u do nt publish it..!
dun let ure fans pay for what one person did..!
m nt sayin finish it right away! take ure time..think over what u have decided ( not finishing midnight sun).. aand then think..is it really fair on ure part to crush ure fans’ hopes??
think over it stephenie..! we still have faith in u..! well at least i do..! and im hopin that u’ll do wtever is the best..!
Jan 30, 2009 at 10:05 pm
I think that even though she is hurt, she should at least try to finish it. Even if she doesn’t want to d that, she could maybe write a different book from maybe Jacob’s view or one of the other Cullens. Maybe even James, Victoria or Laurent.
Jan 30, 2009 at 11:51 pm
who ever leaked the copy of Midnight Sun better sleep with one eye open, he has now broght the wrath of the entire Twilight fan group down on himself. i hope he’s happy, cos he just ruined it for everyone else.
. Please continue, we all would love to hear Edwards point of view. i know that it would be hard after it was leaked like that and we completely understand why you aren’t continuing, but could you please give us a promise that one way or another we will get to read it in the future? please?
Stephanie if you ever read this, please continue with Midnight Sun, even if you just finish the partial draft and put it on your website, you waould make millions happy

Ok, in my opion if someone leaked part of it, yea it is a big deal, I don’t think that she should not finish it though!! Who ever did it does not know what they did to the true fans that were willing to wait, we should not have to suffer for some JERKS problem, everyone but who leaked it deserves to see Edwards side of the story, so I totally agree with Jaymie on this. Stephinie should not because of this! I will read it, she will have tto finish when she sees how mant people she has LET DOWN!!

No she should publish the book. and trust her publishers to not leak her stuff.
Feb 1, 2009 at 6:10 pm
I am addisted to twilight. and i jus found out that she may not publish midnight sun bcuz of one stupid, idiotic person whos is hated by every twilight fan. i havnt read midnight sun nor do i want to untill its published. I hav faith thet SM knows wut she is doing. I may only be 13 but i am sooo angered by this that person better watch his back.
Feb 2, 2009 at 8:06 pm
twilight makes everybody think that there are actually vampires and werewolfs! it keeps you on the edge of your seat ! Edward rox my softball sox!
Feb 3, 2009 at 9:48 pm
i want 2 read it soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo so bad
p.s. keenan got me an edward doll
Feb 3, 2009 at 9:59 pm
I understand that SM is upset that Midnight sun was illegally posted on the internet, but if she doesn’t finish it, she will be letting down all the fans that read the first chapter on her website! It’s so good! Stephanie, if your reading this… Please Finish It!!!!!! I’m begging you!!!!
Feb 3, 2009 at 11:42 pm
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE finish the book! I am begging you SM! Do you know how much Twilight means to me? A lot, i go into a world of my own and pretend that Bella is me because I have brown hair and look like the girl from the poster. But i NEED to see Edward C’s point if view of Twilight, in a matter a fact, i WANT to see his view for ALL of the series! How does he stop himself from crushing Bella, what does he think when she’s dying in the ballroom, how did he stop himself from drinking too much of Bella’s blood? I WANT TO KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!
True Twilight Fan
Feb 4, 2009 at 1:04 am
um…… i hope sm changes her mind because her fans have been waiting for other books to read and we have been wanting to know what edward was thinkg and i think she should think about her fans also.the book is like an addection once you read it you can’t stop and we wont to read more. she could change it around or something. but at least she could finish writting it and her fans will have something to read.we never got a chance to see into edwards mind we have heard jacobs and bellas but never edward i think sh should keep writing and finish what she started and don’t trust anybody with thing like that you never know they might turn on you.
Feb 4, 2009 at 9:10 pm
I realy like twilight it lets us escape the real world uk i realy realy hope she publishes midnight sun
Feb 4, 2009 at 10:10 pm
I would really like you to publish this book midnight sun. I love the twilght saga and it would be wonderful if you do. I was really upset to finish the last book cause i wanted to know what happens after the last book breaking dawn. I think that you need to keep writing books for the twilight saga. I would really like that. I want to know more on edwrad and bella.
I have actually fallen in love with edward cullen in the book not the movie.
Feb 5, 2009 at 1:05 am
i really really really hope that she finishes midnight sun. i love edward!!!!!!!! the books are awesome!!! i finished all of them in under a weeks time i just couldnt put them down there too amazing! every1 at my school is obsessed with them!!! Please SM i love the books im begging u plz publish it ull let a lot of people down if u dnt. PPPPPPPLLLLLLZZZZZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Feb 5, 2009 at 2:13 pm
I really hope she continues the story from Bella’s point of view! She has sooo many fans who also want her to continue!
PLEASE OR I WIL DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Feb 5, 2009 at 8:48 pm
Necessito do livro setph. Ja li todos, em ingles, brasileiro e portugues.
Feb 5, 2009 at 10:05 pm
i absolutely love the twilight series (so far) and i really was looking forward to reading midnight sun. Knowing/reading the book from Bella’s perspective is really interesting to know how she feels bout Edward and it wouldve been really interesting to actually know how Edward feels about Bella.
Feb 5, 2009 at 11:54 pm
I think that SM should still finish it. Sure someone leaked some of it but oh well. Rewrite, reedited. She has sooooooo many fans who have been dying to read it. I dan’t think this should prevent her from doing it! Ive always been curious about what was going on in Edwards head, so when i heard about Midnight Sun, i was soooooo excited!!!i hope she changes her mind and finishes it!
Feb 6, 2009 at 4:47 pm
i know how sad this sound but after reading the whole series, twice, i’ve got withdrawals. Please Steph, give me my next fix. I love all the books, they made me sooooo emotional, and i can actually relate to bella when she says when she gets angry that she cries- who knows mabey i’ll find the perfect VAMPIRE man!
Love forever
Lizzy
Feb 7, 2009 at 1:16 am
I don’t think a Jacob spin off would be good I like Jacob but when they had New moon with no Edward it seemed boring to me
Feb 7, 2009 at 5:54 pm
SM; you should still finish midnight sun b/c we have been waiting for it and its a good idea. I havent exactly heard about anything from it so it will be a surprise for me (: but anyways yea all your books have been awsome and i dont want to end the series. You should always go with your first instanct. I hope u fulfill that book
love always Jenna . :]
Feb 7, 2009 at 6:26 pm
I think she should make the edward story i just think she sould make it a little diffrent. I also hope she makes a jacob spinn off!!!!!!
the person that did this better turn themselfs in!!!!! plz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Feb 7, 2009 at 7:47 pm
this could be a publicity stunt dont ya think?!
or just a way of making fans anticipate more of wht is to some and weather the book will be published or not..!
and then she says shes not sure if she will publish it and so when she does pple would go crazy and but it even more than they would have if she had just normally published it?!
dont get me rong, i like SM and i love her books but STILL! i mean, just because someone leaked the first few chapters of the book doesnt mean u just let ur dream go and disappoint thousands of fans around the world. maybe because of tht, people would buy the book even more just to be able to know the rest of it. Meyer’s good, she’s really good at what she does and it would be a huge disappointment, for her fans and for people who look to her as their inspiration or their mentor, if she doesnt finish the book.
i was really looking forward to it. it would be the best thing ever for the book to be finished, because frankly, Bella’s stupid and i hate her (especially since eclipse) and i’d rather read edwards mind!
Feb 7, 2009 at 8:25 pm
hey steph i really think u should finish ur book b/c all your fans are waiting for more, we have always loved ur series and we are really hoping to get more cause it’s really sad for it to end like this, everyone wants to know edwards part of the story and i know maybe you dont have that much of enthusiasm but please…if u dont have a reason to do is, think of us who will always be waiting for more… so please do this , finish this book cause i know it will be a great hit , and everybody will always owe u for finishing this book, luv ya.. and thanks for everything..isa
hey u gguys can you tell me her webpage i really want to check it out.
Feb 7, 2009 at 9:39 pm
Poor Stephenie Meyer… A spin-off of Jacob would be horrible D:
Feb 8, 2009 at 11:12 am
hey… i reeely wanna read the rest of midnight sun. it ws awesome till where the draft ended… c’moon SM… its not the end of the world… v luv u n ur bks rock… pls finish the bk…
ps: i wudnt like a spin-off of jacob, but a book on the jacob-renesmee relation wud be nice.. i’ve heard rumours that there’s gonna be one called falling stars… can any1 confirm this? thnx.
Feb 8, 2009 at 3:35 pm
Feb 8, 2009 at 7:44 pm
hi stephenie! c’est ma raison de vivre. Je pense que vous devriez finir votre livre ” midnight sun” parce que vous en avez rendue accro plus d’une!!!!!
quelqu’un a publié le début de votre livre mais cela ne donne aux lecteurs qui l’ont trouvé qu’un avant-gout de ce qu’il pourrait y avoir ensuite puisqu’il n’y a pas la fin. Les gens vont donc acheter votre livre de manière à la connetre ! je pense donc que c’est un avantage pour vous !
je vous admire beaucoup et j’espère vraiment que vous allez ecrire la fin de “midnight sun” !!!!!
bisous!
i don’t speak English very well because I’m french… sorry !I thus used a translator :
I Love your book !!!!! it’s my It is my reason for living. I think that you should finish your ” midnight sun ” book because you made it hooked more of one!!!!!
Somebody published the beginning of your book but it looks to the readers who found him that a front – gout of what he could have there then because there is no end. People are thus going to buy your book(pound) so as to the connetre! I thus think that it is an advantage for you! I admire you
Feb 8, 2009 at 10:28 pm
Omgg
plzzz Stephenie Meyer
Publish the book
I am a huuuuuge fan of your books
I would love it if you would publish

Feb 19, 2009 at 6:41 pm
i believe SM took the right path in not publishing Midnight Sun. She shouldnt have ever given it out in the first place (in my opinion its bad luck to do that.) I think she chose the right path in not publishing it, and unfortunatly we all have to pay for what one retard did (kind of like taxes lol.)
Feb 20, 2009 at 12:40 am
heyyy(:. i wanted to say that i totally understand how stephenie wouldn’t want to finish it. i would be crushed if i wrote somethinf like that and someone just put it all over the internet. i was so excited though for this book to come out though and i really really really hope she finishes it. the books are amazing, addicting, and astonishing. soo awesomeeee(: so i hope that jerk who put it on the internet confesses and stephenie keeps writing the rest of midnight sun. then after that i hope she makes edwards point of view for new moon, eclipse, and breaking dawn! that would be awesome but thats a ton of work. but seriously she is like the best writer everr!!!!
kkk peeace ouuut.

Feb 23, 2009 at 11:58 pm
omg i need to read that book please finish it
Mar 3, 2009 at 2:20 am
I’m so upset that it’s on hold. I do understand why stephanie would want to put it on hold, i cant believe someone put a rough draft on the internet. When i heard she was writing books on edwards point of view i freaked, i was so excited because i love edward. Reading those books is so addicting, i read them all within 2 days. I couldnt put them down. But now this disappoints me, but i do understand her reasoning. I just really hope she does finish midnight sun =]
Mar 4, 2009 at 2:58 am
Ollie i tottally agree w/ you! I know she is is VERY upset but she should not make her other fans suffer for what the rude inconsideret person did. I know im young but i love twilight, new, eclipse, & breaking dawn. I wish she would publish it, i mean yeah it happened but their is nothing she can do about it now, who knows maybe karma will come back around for that person. I mean it happened last summer. I know she is sad & mad. But making all of us wonder & worry if she IS or ISNT finishing it is very selfish of her. I love her & her books, theyre addicting..lol..Ive read all of them at least more than once, & i would love to finsish reading new moon. I read the partial draft & it is amazing, she is such a good writer. But i really do think she should not have put it on her site, because now all of us fans are left wondering what hes thinking in the meadow & when he has to leave bella & what happens w/ james! Well i pray that she will publish the book! (keeping my fingers crossed)

i truly feel horrible that this happened, i can understand the anger and disappointment you must be going through but please don’t ever forget that you have millions of fans that will support you in anyway possible. I would love to see you continue doing what you love to do, i know it’s hard, especially when problems like these occur but you also have to keep in mind that you have many people that love you and will help and support all the way through it! it would truly mean a lot if you could finish midnight sun but we completely inderstand if you don’t. no matter what, you’re fans still love you and will respect your choice in the end!

Mar 9, 2009 at 8:10 pm
YOU NEED TO FINISH THE BOOK!
they are so addicting! i just finished the saga and now i dont know what to do! read them all over again!!!
Mar 9, 2009 at 8:38 pm
She should keep writing so we can keep reading. It is horrible what happened but it would be amazing to read it from Edwards side weather it is one book or the whole series. I also really want to know what he did when he left Bella in New Moon and when he changes her in Breaking Dawn. She should keep writing.
Mar 9, 2009 at 9:11 pm

I can’t live without a new book of twilight!! Really I can’t! So please, can’t S.M. rethink about it and read the book? I LOVE how she writes the books! I love her!!!
Jun 12, 2009 at 3:19 pm
*write the book! I’m sorry
Jun 12, 2009 at 3:19 pm
I hate the one who did that too her!!
Jun 13, 2009 at 9:23 pm
dear Stephaenie. I knopw its a violation to you about what happened with Midnight Sun by as a fan of your literature and an addicted lover of the twilghit series i personally think that you should not punish your twilight saga fans by not finishing midnight sun. if you were one of us you would know that everyone wants more twilight to get lost in as they read. You have started a saga series that will be a hit for generations to come. Please continue to write about Bella, Jacob, and the Cullens. its a garantied promise that every novel in the series that you write will keep selling and leaving readers more to come. thank you
Jun 18, 2009 at 10:03 pm
I have read all four books twice. I had to read New Moon again so that I could appreciate Jacob as much as Bella does. Frankly, the first time I read it, I was anxiously waiting for Edward’s return.
I am saddened about the circumstances surrounding Midnight Sun. I read what Stephanie provided on her website, and my heart ached, literally.
I hope as many of you out there that she makes the choice to complete the novel.
Thanks,
Mama to a 13 year old

i wish she would write one more book to the series and write they story from Edwards veiw to. i dont care 4 jacobs that much
Jul 9, 2009 at 5:39 pm
I think that she will certainly finish it and publish it. She says its on hold indefinitely but that doesn’t mean never. I would love to re-read the entire series based on his side of things, especially when he leaves Bella…I would be grateful for it.
These books are not just for teenagers. Every woman I know loves these books.
Jul 11, 2009 at 9:09 pm
I love all your books that you wrote. I readed all your books everyday when I’m done with one of them I move on to the next one and keep repeating it. But you have to finish MIDNIGHT SUN because I always wanted to know what was Edward’s point of view and what he thought at that moment. PLEASE!!!!! You have to finish the book. Your the only aurthor that I really enjoy reading your books too and the best one in the world its like your book speak to people and change their lives. I never get tired of reading them even though I already know what’s going to happen to them. But it keeps me excited and entertains me even though i know whats going to happen next. I get excited every time I turn to the next page because it just gets to me most of the time like I know what’s really going to happen next but it still got to me. Every person can tell you which book is you favorite and the usually say one of the twilight book. ALL YOUR BOOKS ROCK!!!! But doesn’t mean you have to punished the fans who wants to know whats going to happen. Trust me i always talk to my friends about TWILIGHT 24/7 and sometimes i even dream about and day dream about how it happens.
***SO P-L-E-A-S-E FINISH MIDNIGHT SUN because i know it’s going to be an AWESOME book!!!!***:)
Aug 29, 2009 at 9:11 pm
I’m kinda disappointed i mean I’m probably not one of Stephenie Meyers biggest fans but i thought that midnight sun was one of her best books yet.But i don’t see the point in all of this “not finishing the book”and” it will be held indefinitely”I think its unfair to all all her fans that they have to pay for the price that some one else did. She may be disappointed and mad but what about all those people shes dragging down with her.
Sep 2, 2009 at 11:23 pm
I loved all four of the books and the Twilight movie and yes I am a Jacob fan which I get teased about. Looking forward to watching New Moon in November 2009.
Stephenie I met you at a book signing here in Kansas City, MO (got my Granddaughter Ashley books signed as a very special gift to her)you are a wonderful person down to earth and a fantastic writer.
Please don’t let one bad apple spoil the completion of MIDNIGHT SUN, finish the book for all of your loyal fans who love you and your writing.
Sep 6, 2009 at 7:55 am
I understand SM reason for not coming out with Midnight Sun… but I dont think she should punish her other and very loyal fans who have been supporting Twilight… It not our fault that it got posted online… So I hope she finishes it… b/c I would love to know what Edward was thinking When he found out that Bella went to go meet up with James… I know that he went crazy but I would still LOVE TO READ IT
Oct 3, 2009 at 6:17 pm

I don’t see WHY she has to be a child. Why she is acting like it’s the end of the world, she’s being dumb! I mean …look at this…thousands of authors have leaks…any popular writer and artist has so what is the big deal?? IT WAS ON UNFINISHED CHAPTER and she acts like it’s the whole world Am i seriously the only one who thinks she is acting like a child?? I think she was just looking for an excuse OUT of it so she could do something else, she didn’t have to say OH WELL W.E IT’S NOT GOING TO BE FINISHED, she just likes being a child.
Oct 18, 2009 at 6:23 pm
She’s not being a child or childish, she just probably doesn’t see the point in working really hard on an idea that isnt going to suprise people or be original anymore when she could explore a different story. She said in an interview that she just doesn’t want to carry on the story right now after whats happened, and that she has spent so much time on the twilight saga that she’d enjoy a fresh storyline.
Its fair enough to be honest.
Oct 26, 2009 at 12:02 am
she is acting like a complete drama queen.she also said she is going to write a book called Full Moon.Full Moon is Jacobs point of view.lets see if she writes and finishes that.but the twilight series is not complete without Midnight Sun.Whoever link the chapters should just come clean and say that they are sorry.And SM we all love you but your acting like if you dont finish Midnight Sun that eveything is going to go back to normal.*Reality check*It wont.Somebody put the chapters out there.OH WELL!!!!Suck it up and finish the book.You aint doing nothing but hurting your fans.NOT COOL!!!!This is so childish.There is also talk that the Twilight cast signed to be in the movie Midnight Sun.That pretty stupid if there isnt going to be a book.But I hope they do make the movie.I hope she reads all of our comments and changes her mind.FINISH MIDNIGHT SUN!!!!!!!!

She need to grow up and write the freaking book already.Im so pissed off she just gave up.If someone link it then she should be that much more determind to get the book finished to show that person that noone and nothing can stop her cause thats how much she loves her fans.But noooooooo she gave up on the book which means she is gving up on her fans.Nice move SM…NOT!!!!!I guess she just like to hurt her fans like that.
