'Twilight' Series Halted, Read Stephenie Meyer's 'Midnight Sun' Draft

Luckily I have already given up...

I read the first book in the "Twilight" series of books, but have since decided not to read the rest of the books after hearing nothing that gives me any reason to continue and it seems author Stephenie Meyer has also decide to halt work on the series, but for entirely different reasons.

Posted on her official site we learn the following about her planned novel, "Midnight Sun," which would retell the "Twilight" stories only this time from the perspective of Edward. However, her draft found its way online (really? I didn't know) and she has decided to stop working on the story indefinitely:

As some of you may have heard, my partial draft of Midnight Sun was illegally posted on the Internet and has since been virally distributed without my knowledge or permission or the knowledge or permission of my publisher.

I did not want my readers to experience Midnight Sun before it was completed, edited and published. I think it is important for everybody to understand that what happened was a huge violation of my rights as an author, not to mention me as a human being. As the author of the Twilight Saga, I control the copyright and it is up to the owner of the copyright to decide when the books should be made public; this is the same for musicians and filmmakers. Just because someone buys a book or movie or song, or gets a download off the Internet, doesn't mean that they own the right to reproduce and distribute it. Unfortunately, with the Internet, it is easy for people to obtain and share items that do not legally belong to them. No matter how this is done, it is still dishonest. This has been a very upsetting experience for me, but I hope it will at least leave my fans with a better understanding of copyright and the importance of artistic control.

So where does this leave Midnight Sun? My first feeling was that there was no way to continue. Writing isn't like math; in math, two plus two always equals four no matter what your mood is like. With writing, the way you feel changes everything. If I tried to write Midnight Sun now, in my current frame of mind, James would probably win and all the Cullens would die, which wouldn't dovetail too well with the original story. In any case, I feel too sad about what has happened to continue working on Midnight Sun, and so it is on hold indefinitely.

Meyer goes on to say the draft is incomplete, "the writing is messy and flawed and full of mistakes". Strangely, I thought that was her M.O. What gives?

Either way, you can head on over and read all 264 pages of her unfinished, un-edited, messy and mistake-ridden draft right here [PDF].

The film adaptation of book one in the series will be seen when Twilight hits theaters in November starring Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson. Meyer caught a bit of a drumming over her final installment in the book series upon the release of "Breaking Dawn", but I am sure that won't stop the die-hards from continuing the lovefest.

I have never read the books. I didn't even know anything about the series a little before comic-con so I don't care for the stories, but for a writer who spends months and years on a project this must be enraging. I can understand how the author just gives up after a incident like this.

How can you possibly feel back for her flerk? SHE WAS PLANNING ON REWRITTING A BOOK OF HERS FROM A DIFFERENT CHARACTERS VIEW.

That is far worse than pirates distributing unfinished work, she was actually planning on swindling people out of money to read something they had already read, just with a different title.

Anyone that has read the books knows that Meyers characters are written and developed at the elementary school level, so there couldn't possibly be any difference in viewing the events from one empty husk of a person as from another.

This is honestly really, really depressing. I'm just about finished Breaking Dawn and would've absolutely ADORED reading any of the books from Edwards perspective. Kind of like…we've seen Bella's and Jacobs…but? It would be amazing to finally see Edwards thoughts. If she ever completed it, I would still buy it.

No one can blame her for her choice; to think anyone would do such a thing is just so horrible. This is an example of what one person can do just to ruin it for everyone else.

I agree that it is depressing, and I think that Stephenie should have reacted better. I mean, this was her fault just as much as anyone else's. She was the one who distributed the copies in the first place, and she should have given more thought to who she was giving it to. (Or not given any copies out at all) If she wanted it to be experienced edited and completed, why did she give anyone copies?

Anyways, since she promised that she would publish Midnight sun, she should keep that promise and finish it!

I really hope that she decides to finish it, but she should think of her fans for a minute, I mean, think about the millions of dedicated people you will be disappointing if you don't, Stephenie! Then again, this most likely is just a huge publicity stunt meant to get everyone in an uproar. If this is the case though, Stephenie, focus on writing! You keep telling everyone that we're putting to much pressure on you, but most of it is put on by yourself!

For all of the fans who LOVE the "Twilight" series we have a right to be upset about the postponment of "Midnight Sun". I have read the beginning of it on Stephenie's website and contrary to some peoples OPINIONS…telling it from Edward's point of view is VERY different. These books are written for enjoyment plain and simple. Isn't that what books are there for? If we (the foolish, silly, wasteful and duped) fans want to spend (or waste according to some posts here) our money on her books, then it is our right. Don't be such a grouchy puss and find something better to gripe about.

So its enraging yes, that people actually put her draft on the internet but its even more confusing when this website prints her remarks on the matter (which are completely understandable and true) and then posts a link to read the illegal draft! Wow great support for the authors guys….

Your entitled to your opinion and all, but you must be out of your mind. "Developed at the elementary school level…", really?! Did you read the book? Yeah, its not rocket science, and you dont have to have a degree to understand it, but to say that must means your smoking crack. What happened to her was horribe, an invasion of her rights as an author.

And another thing, something that you really should just get slapped for saying, her characters are not just "one empty husk of a person as from another." Yeah, I've read the Twilight series, so I dont know what your talking about. Her characters are well rounded and interesting individuals that come alive in the book, thanks to her.

She isnt swindling anyone, we know what we'er buying and its DEFINATELY worth the price she's asking for. I cant wait for that book to come out, I've read the leaked version and its amazing. I cant imagine how good the finished version will be like, if she publishes it. And if you've read the book, you'd know or you wouldnt be ignorant enough to say that its the same thing with a different title. Edward couldnt be more different that Bella, but thats what just makes their relationship so interesting to read.

So really, you must be talking about the wrong book.

I think that yall need to shut up ok. it is stephanies book so let her worry about it. if you guys want it so bad then why don't u write it yourself. and then you could feel how much pressure would be put on u. so give stephanie a break ok. i am a twilight saga fan to . don't get me rong but if i have to wait then u do to.so mabe if people would stock giving stephanie a hard time then maybe she would be able to get the book done.

See ya!!!

dear stephenie meyer author of the worlds beloved twilight, i was hoping to read midnight sun cause i had thought YOU had actulley published it ..as a book. but then one of my best friends allison had told me that it was PUBLISHED ILLEAGALLY! and i do feel that almost all of your rights were violated.as an author, but i do not however think that it was A GOOD idea to keep YOUR fans waiting for you to finish it! and now i feel even worse reading it on the internet. i read twilight in 12 hours and then i read the most intrigueging little artical in the "vancouver sun newspaper" that said you had drempt up the book! when i read "TWILIGHT" again after reading your article. i thought that it must of been one HELL OF A DREAM CAUSE IT WAS SURE IS STILL ONE HECK OF A BOOK – with love jessie hutchinson of smithers b.c canada 5:36 pm dec 10th 2008 EMAIL ME AT jessiehut@hotmail.com to tell me what the heck are you thinking!

THINK ABOUT THAT STEPHANIE THINK ABOUT IT!

Man, Stephanie, wake up and smell the decaf. You were lucky enough to catch lightning in a bottle and fortunate enough to win over generous fans by devising a good idea for a paranormal juvenile romance – but you're blowing it. Leaks happen. The trick is not to become a control freak, but to handle glitches with good grace and learn from your mistakes… and this was YOUR mistake by being naive about the literary/business world. Smarten up. People who like the TWILIGHT series and who have HONORED YOU and made you a success by spending their money in your direction both at the book store and box office don't deserve or appreciate your supercilious, condescending, petulant lectures about rights or your galling threats to ditch MIDNIGHT SUN altogether in retaliation against ONE PERSON. How does it help, really, by punishing those who didn't leak the thing in the first place? Are you a professional writer or not? If so, then stop barfing over spilled milk and realize you came off as intensely churlish in your public flip-out, meltdown. Talk about an over-reaction. Or maybe you are just being attention-grabby to trigger all the current ego-stroking fervor amidst your fans so they'll all BEG you, like the poor folks in many comments above, to PLEASE OH PLEASE finish MIDNIGHT SUN. Well, knock that off, too. It's as irritating as the way Edward chuckles and/or rolls his eyes in every other line of the entire TWILIGHT saga. Also, you might want to distinguish between us liking the world and characters you created as opposed to liking you personally – we don't even know you, stop being so presumptuous. We just buy your books and go see the movies and make you rich and successful. It seems that all the attention has just gone to your head and you've mistaken authorship for some kind of actual power, apparently. Yeah, if you deign to finish MIDNIGHT SUN I'd read it, but I vow that after that I'm NEVER reading one more thing by Stephanie Meyer, not ever. Not HOST, no, not even your interview in a magazine, because you've tried to use your creation to THREATEN your readers. That's worse than leaking something which, face it, gave you more publicity and probably more interest than the whole thing warrants. You created a product and have immensely benefited from that fact that so many have embraced it – but you are forgetting that you need us far more than we need you. If fans want more TWILIGHT stories, the fans themselves can create them without you via fan fiction. We'll keep ourselves entertained, without your hysterics, thank you very much. Or we'll just turn to the next writer who comes along with a good idea and fine marketing team.

Firs I want to say that Stephanie Meyer is I would say the best writer ive known about…. I am a good reader and it took me little more than 2 weeks to read all four books … so when I find out that she was making Midnight Sun I olmust start looking for it averywere thats how i fing out about the idiot who got us all into a very long waiting list for this book…. I really understand her feelings for the book right now and i give her credit for that… But i still cant control miself to wait for her to finish the book… this books have become my life i just cant get enogh of them… if she as to keep writing more books about bella i would one of the first people to celebrate that… and if she writes all of the books from Edwars poit of view also all read them to… I cant wait!!! Stephanie Meyer you are awesome and your books are so too!!!!

Meyers is an excellent writer. yes we all love her books and yes we would love for her to finish it. but she needs time. i am publisher of stephinie and we are great friends we know who leaked this book out on the internet and this person shall punished. Meyers has invited me to a twilight get together. i support her. you should too. she needs us. think about what shoes she is in.she needs time.if she is the person we thought she was from reading her books then she will continue to write Midnight Sun. thank you for your time.

Okay coolade, first of all i know you are not a publisher or friend of Stephanie. Whose chain are you trying to pull? You guys are all making a huge deal about this whole thing. Get off Stephanie's back. By the way coolade, I don't know what your smoking, but I suggest you get off of it. Anyways, Meyer's books are incredible and I know you all love reading them and want to continue reading them. But stop crying about "Midnight Sun" hopefully if that book doesnt come out Stephanie will come out with one even better.

HOW can you judge? Those of you who HAVE published works know that a bit of your soul goes into each piece! Those of you whom have not, your opinion frankly doesn't count. Walk a mile in Meyer's shoes and you'll know why, when a labor of love is trampled upon, it takes a bit to recapture the passion.

That being said, I've read the entire saga, Twilight twice, seen the movie more than a few times and I can assure all skeptics, fans are DYING to know Edward's perspective. It's an entirely different novel for he can never experience Bella's saga, nor can she ever full understand his. Love grows when two individuals, seperate people come together. I simply cannot WAIT until Midnight sun is published and I get to savor who Edward was before and at the beginning of his love affair.

Stephanie (may I call you that?) PLEASE continue your craft. We eagerly, impatiently and profoundly implore you to continue! I am aching for the release of Midnight Sun.

OMG! The books are good anyone who likes them would LOVE to read them in Edward's veiw because nobody EVER knows what he is thinking. The charaters are not written and developed at an elementary school level.

@dalfiuss: That is wrong! Stephenie writes her books with such compassion that you can actually picture what's going on that moment in the book as your reading in your mine and I have never seen an elementary school student be able to do that unless they were some kind of genuis child or something. Plus if you have not read the books as you say you have, how do you know that she is not a good writer your probably just jealous that you cannot write as good as her. If you don't like Twilight what was the point of you even clicking the link to this page no one put a gun to your head and forced you to come here now did they. In my own personal opinion I think she continue to put her own passion and thoughts into the Twilight Saga as she continues to write them. The leak shouldn't have stopped her, I mean whats waiting going to do? It was nice for the readers to get a preview of what Midnight Sun would be about in Edward's point of view. I mean don't we all want to know what he was thinking as he first laid eyes on innocent Bella and wanted to immeadently suck her blood or what he was thinking as he saved her from Tyler's van crushing her to death at that very moment, it will be a wonderful experience as she continues the wonderful Twilight Saga but even if she does rewrite the books in Edward's point of view, I wish to know what is going to happen to Renesmee I mean I wish to see how she grows up, how her and Jacob get along since he imprinted on her. I'm sure that all Twilight fans will be shocked and surprised at Edward's point of view so please continue to read the wonderful series and who ever leaked the story must pay for what they did, causing the book to have to be rewritten! I hope they certainly are pleased with themselves, whoever you were why don't you reveal yourself so all the fans can thank you for stopping the book from being written and making us wait any longer than nessacary! GO TWILIGHT! I LOVE YOU EDWARD, BELLA, RENESMEE, ALICE, JASPER, ESME, CARSLIE, EMMET, AND ROSALIE! DON'T WORRY I'M JUST HERE WITH THE VAMPIRES

@dalfiuss: maybe you should shut up because you don't know what your talking about. First off Stephenie's writing is not at an elementary school level. Perhaps yours is, but deffinately not hers. I've yet to see you come up with a novel nor saga as she has. So you have no right to say anything.

Plus being that it is a totally different point of view or shall i say perspective, then it is totally different story that is to be told. Yes being that it is based on the same occurances in the first book. Some parts may be similar or alike. But it is just like someones thoughts and opinions are different. Like our take on this fifth book, we don't see eye to eye there so we have different stories to tell, or arguments to share.

So in conclusion the author is not ripping people off, because of the difference in perspectives. It is a whole and total different story in entire.

@Kitty:

This is not her falt at all she intrusted the copies to thoes that she knew. She trusted them with a passion and they betrayed her. This dishonisty has ruined her train of thought and has cost us all.
This is like intrusting a best friend with the biggest secreat of your life and you done expect them to go over and tell the entire world.
I do feel that she should go ahead and finish the midnight sun just to prove that even such betrail can not endanger her incrediable creative spark and i feel that she may one day do so but till then we must all wait.

Hi i loved the twilight series ive read all 4 books and i also went to her site and read the draft and I LOVED IT i was laughing me head off it was damn funny i would love to see her write all 4 books from Edward’s point of view i would buy them in a heart beat… Stephenie Meyer if you read this PLEASE WRITE THE 4 BOOKS FROM EDWARDS POINT OF VIEW…. WE NEED TO KNOW…. you dont know how these books have affected some of us and now we have gotten a taste of edwards point of view we need to know the rest up to the end….

Ugh. That's what I have to say on the subject. Stephenie Meyer needs to get over herself and write the book. Personally, I believe we should get the book we were promised. So what it got leaked on the internet? Happens to a lot of people every day! Do they sit and cry about it? No! They finish what they started. I don't care if this is a publicity stunt, or if she's honestly upset. Who cares. All I want is the book. Oh, and those of you who say buying the book is a "waste", there's this thing called a library. Look it up. And another thing, Meyer's complaints that the draft was crappy are quite frankly, pathetic. She's not exactly the best author in the world and her writing in isn't what I would call "masterful". It is purely for entertainment that is, I must say, a bit shallow. She is no where near good enough to be getting all high-and-mighty. Money and good reviews have obviously gone to her head.

@Claudia: Although i agree that Stephenie is not the best and greatest author or symbol of literature in the world. She still does a good job, and i would think that writing about 4 great series or saga's gives her the earnings of some bragging rights. So what if her success has gone to her head she's only human, nd she's done great for us.

I also think that it's a little harsh to not sympathize for her at the least. I mean she was writing something for the fans to enjoy. She doesn't have to. She has enough money by now to carry her through life in luxury. So yes she deserves to whine a little because her rights as an author were taken advantage of and abused. I'm sure you would feel the same if you were in her shoes.

@Jayne:

You have said the exact word processing through my mind. She needs to get over herself, it's not her we want so badly. I'ts the story and the plot line. I admit she is a very talented writer, but she wants to wait for "everyone to forget" about Midnight Sun and continue writing in 2 years. I do not exactly want to forget, but when i do, and most other people will likely follow, no one will be left to read her little book. She is commiting a huge error and the book will not sell as well in 2 yeaars as it would now. Frankly, I am tired of her complaining and leaving other coments begging for her to continue. In Edwards word, "I'll just have to endure" and forget about tis hopless situation.

@alley: Look, I do sympathize with her. I'm an amateur writer myself, and I'm sure I would be upset, were I in her situation. The point is, life goes on. I just wish she would take this whole thing in stride and write the book. I've learned that once authors get cocky, their writing suffers. Writing shouldn't be about publicity or money, it should be about imagination and creativity. In her own way, shes a good writer, and I enjoy the books, but she owes all her success to her fans. It's simply unacceptable to let them down like this .

It's really hard to convey what a sense of loss I felt when I discovered the draft of "Midnight Sun" on Stephenie Meyer's website and discovered it stopped before the all important "meadow scene". It's really a good thing that Stephenie did not "out" the person who posted the draft. Seriously, I would have felt compelled to find them. Then I got to thinking about it…who did she give the draft to? After all of the interviews, I have begun to wonder if she had given it to Rob Pattinson to read, who then sent it to a production assistant or something of that nature, who then leaked it. It's one of the few ways I can explain to myself why she didn't sue the pants off whomever leaked the draft. After all, she couldn't ruin the reputation of the star of her upcoming movie. Though I can imagine she would have been pretty damn mad about it. Well, it's just a theory…I guess I have needed to come up with something since I don't have anything "Twilight" related to read. Besides, I need for her to complete "Midnight Sun" so she can write the next books. I have been formulating a plot (again, because I have nothing "Twilight" related to read) from Renesmee's perspective (showdown between Jacob and Nahuel) and then another from Carlisle's perspective (his complete history, the thoughts and feelings behind each addition to his "family") and a final showdown with the Volturi. Let's hope she finishes her "Host" sequel/s quickly so we can see where she will take the "Twilight" saga next!

@llavish1: Hmmm yes i guess i agree with you, after finishing all the books i couldn't help but wonder the different scenerios that could be in her next book of the twilight saga. Although i expected her to not write furthur more about the twilight saga. I always wondered or imagined how it would be if she continued and wrote a book through Renesme's pov discussing Jacob and Nahuel's show down or battle for her heart. Of course in the end she'd have to pick Jacob, only because she was meant entirely for him. Also because it be messed up if the authour took away his only happy ending and gave it to a lesser character. But still i would have liked to see the conflict between the two.

No body asked people to buy the book. But the option, will hopefully be there for us. So NO body can say that its stupid of her to write it. Ive read the first couple chapters of Midnight Sun, and it has totally changed my thought on the beginning of Twilight.. Knowning his thoughts, and feelings. It was not illegally read- it was in the back of one of the Twilight Sagas..

But to read about how much pain Edward actually had to go thru, come on! It may just top Twilight itself. The books have got to be the greatest thing written. Its got everybody hooked- even a 27 yr old married dad at my work. The picture is in your head.. Its so clear! Ive read all four books in the past month, with working full time, and a social life, and Christmas and new years. I havent read a book in about 6 years.. This has to say something!

I say.. BRING IT ON! && every book that is linked to it, I will continue to buy, and read until the pages are falling out.

In no way was I bragging about what I can and cant do. Theres people saying they read the 4 books in four days. So mine was hardly a brag.

But I just finished reading Breaking Dawn.. && it was like a giant relief of my shoulders, knowing that every spare minute wont be spent in bed reading these books. Sad though, knowing Ive read them all.. For now..

Speaking about that.. Anyone know when Midnight Sun is due to be realised IF it is being realised? Im picturing what the shops are going to be like now.. Maybe I'll have to become a vampire just to move fast enough to be able to buy a copy?

&& is there anything else linked to the Twilight Saga?

Addicted? Yes.

Just to add a comment, I really was touched by the 4 Twilight Novels. I do believe that it is a violation what has happened to the partial draft of Midnight Sun, but I am also hoping that Stephanie decides to continue with her work. There has not been very many Novels that have touched me the way that the Twilight Series has and I am 34 years old. It looks like, as of today the partial draft has been pulled from her website. Maybe this is a good thing. One, it was very tempting to read, and I have been contemplating it over the past few days, but today when I went to pull it up.. Just for a peek, of course. It is no longer available. This could be a good thing. Who wants the first 12 chapters of a book that is going to be published anytime soon to be available for the public to read.. Hopefully this is a sign that we will be hearing more about a release date of the 5th book in the series.

i think this is stupid. you dont go back on your word.
i understand its upsetting that some one stole it. but the sad thing is by doing all of this your giving them what they want, to tear you down.
if she finished the book it would be a HUGE hit still! no matter how many people read the beginning part, it would just make them want to read it more. (kinda like and addiction) the more informed you become of something the more you want it.
this is so sad that she did this. she thinks that this is the right thing to do.
but in the long run she's just hurting, disapointing, and putting down her fans that have suported her through out the HOLE saga its so disapointing to see a good thing be givin up apon.

I want to thank Stephanie Meyers for writting. I enjoyed the Twilight series. After the first book I wasn't sure if I would continue reading. One of the main attractions to the Twilight series was Edward. I wanted to know why Edward left and took everything that he had given to Bella to try to forget him. I wanted to know what was going on in Edwards mind. I hope that Meyers writes the book because I would like to know Edward better.
I have not gotten into reading a series so much since the Lord of the Rings. I liked the books better than Harry Potter.
I am a Middle school teacher and everyday I see several students reading the book. Our school even had a Twilight party and had a huge turnout.
I can understand Meyers being so upset about her writing leaking. It is probably very personal to her. I have a Nephew who is a writer and he doesn't even like family member read his writing before it is finished. Give her a break!!! If you see this Stephanie Meyers please keep writing. I would love to read a book from Edward prespective. Have a wonderful day!

I do believe she had a right to be upset, but I think that she needs to get over herself and realize that her fans made her who she is, and that they can just as easily leave her. I didn't read the books until my teenage daughter got me involved, but I thought they were exceptional. I am disappointed that the next book is being delayed, particuklarly since I read the first 4 chapters, and loved it!

@dalfiuss:

I read her books because my 9 yo daughter was looking for something at her reading level (high school) that did not have content beyond her age level. She absolutely fell in *love* with the series and is avidly reading, finally. I have a JD and PhD and love to read. I found Ms. Meyer's writing style compelling. Even though I was able to read an entire book in a little over 4 hours, I still found that the characters were well developed, and the writing was appropriate to the content. I had to travel recently so I downloaded her incomplete Midnight Sun to my computer for something to read on the plane. Despite what one comment stated – that she would be ripping people off by selling them something they had already read – the story from Edward's point of view, while the same, is incredibly unique. It has value in it's own sense, and should she choose to continue the book despite this sad betrayal, I will be certain to pre-order this book. Likewise, I would do the same if she wrote New Moon from Edward's (or Jacob's) point of view. Of course, I would love to see what torment Edward was feeling at leaving Bella for so many months, and his pursuit of Victoria throughout the US. Neither of these would be the same book, and they would be well worth their price (at about $22 for a hardcover). As I said, I would be happy to preorder if this was the path she chose to pursue.

To Ms. Meyer – your books are wonderful. I understand that writing them is an emotional experience and I respect your feelings with regard to Midnight Sun, but on behalf of many of your readers, I am personally requesting that you find the strength to complete this book. It is marvelous, something that young readers need to experience. Not only would it be a wonderful book, but also a learning experience for many of them – that there are always different sides to the same story. Best of luck!

first of all Ms. Meyer has every right to postpone her book due to the ignorance of the morons who leaked her book midnight sun… i read her draft after i heard it wasn't going to be published because her books are addictive to read.. i have never had an entire book hold my attention until her writings were discovered and i know im just like everyone else writing their complaints, but i can not believe a person would put her beautiful writings on the internet without discussing it with her first.. IT IS not right to put someones thought on the internet with even the faintest chance of her not rusuming her writing.. her books inspire people to read, to live to the fullest, and to have hope that their is someone for them to live for.. so for that person who leaked her version, i am highly upset that you would even think of such a thing as to make her stop writing her insperational words to world just because you think your doin others a FAVOR!!!!!!!!!

Mrs. Meyer,
With all due respect, i'de like to say that you should finish writing the midnight sun, even if it took you ten years. not finishing it would be so devastating. But i do respect your words and your admiration. You have inspired so many people, espically me. i never new such a book like yours can ever exist. The way the it was, i felt like i was part of it or watcjing the film in my mind. i've always wanted to be a writer, i love to fantasies in my head about heros, villians, every emotion there is, but can't seem to put in words on paper… like you. You've inspired me to go for the goal and make a score. Your characters are one in a million! God has given you a beautiful gift and i hoped you use that gift to write more wonderful different stories. Your kids are lucky to have a mother like you.
Wish you luck and happyness and keep up the good works!!!

Yours truely,

i am a great fan of yours i am reading breaking dawn and i cant put it down, and i only have 300 pages left. I'm trying not finish it because i do not want it to end. I was so shocked of what happened to bella after her birth to renesmee im at the part when she is going to go hunt for the very first time.Cant wait to read it. Im sry about people ruining you writing the Midnight Sun book. i really hope you finish this book i was looking so forward to read this book. i even got a job to get your whole series(im 15 i shouldve got a job anyways haha). You are one of the BEST authors i ever read!!! i really hope you make more books about this series. I know you are sad about people ruining ur dreams to write the ending of this book, but i think you should just ignore them thats what my mom tells me she tells me to ignore people when they are being mean to me or making rude comments of what i am doing. I know it is hard but just set ur mind and ur goals to it and u can do it.
Thanks for making these series!!!

I am a huge fan of the Twilight saga.
I mean I'm not such a fan of the movie to the book because I though Edward was not very cute in the movie. But In the books you can imagine what he looks like at it's what you want. I think that I fell in love with Edward by the end of Breaking Dawn. I finish the WHOLE series in like a week max. I loved those book. It just makes me sad that I have no more to read about them. So to whoever who put the draft up ILLEAGALY!!
I hate you because that is my only way to read more about this love Relationship. I think what they did was worng not to just Stephanie Meyre but to alll of the Twilight fans.
And in Breaking Dawn I thought it was amazing that when I read the physical damage to Bella after their first time having sex. The picture that it put in my head of Edward with extreme carfullness trying his hardest not to hurt her. If only other guys could be like that or even if Vampired could exsitis I think that would be great!!

Okay, I think all of you who are bashing Stephanie Meyer need to seriously get a life. She's doing what she is doing because it is how she feels. I think your seriously being immature if your going to talk about how much you don't like the books. If you don't like them, than don't read them. We don't all need to hear your opinions. I for one think The Twilight Saga is one of the best series out there. Stephanie is a amazing writer and any of you who say she's not is just jealous of her. And whoever put up the draft of Midnight Sun is completely stupid and I hate you. I was looking forward to it. AND IT IS DEFFINTELY NOT THE SAME AS TWILIGHT!!!!!! The whole point of making it was to see what Edward was thinking while he feel in love with Bella. I have not read the draft only to wait for it to be even better if Stephanie does decided to publish it. So stop being rude, Okay !? Thanks :)

i truely think that the twilight series waqs the best saga around i am very displeased with who ever put it out on the internet and ruined it for all of her fans i belive it was truely wron of someone to take this womans hard work and put it out there like its nothing but a peice of trash. i for one was truely was looking forward to its relese and many more books to come after. but i do think that series should have contiued of of the book breaking dawn altho i was very pleased already. who ever ruined the relese of midnight sun dose not deserve to be a fan of this author. i feel it was the most inconcederable thing they could have done to stephenie meyer the took her work and ruined it. i really hope she decides to continue despite what sum people have done to her i truely think that her books are worth the $25 a book here in canada and that they truely are the best series and story line i have ever read i am hurt by the person that ruined it for all her fans how can you take some ones elses work and plagerize it like that like who are you to take her book and hurt her and all her fans i truely think that who ever did it needs to go fuck themselfs

i can't believe she's not publishing the book. i was looking forward to it and i think it's childish of her to be mad so she's going to be stubborn and make everyone mad at her. So technically she's lying because she said she would then someone gets in her path and she turns right around. i think that is rather pitiful. i mean she's a grown woman! I'm a huge fan of her books i have every book, hardcover, i only need one more twilight shirt and i'll own every twilight shirt that was made for girls and i have one hoodie, i feel i need more of those. I'm not hating on her but i do think its rude of her to have done that to everyone else who has and will continue to wait patiently for MIDNIGHT SUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Honestly, I am so tired of all this non-sense. For goodness sake Stephanie Meyer! Just hurry up and write the book! This "I'm feeling too sorry for myself to write" is utterly ludicrous! My respect for Ms. Meyer has significantly dropped due to this extremely "drama queen" like behavior. Twilight is a wonderful book, but come on, its no Romeo and Juliet. It's not as if Stephanie Meyer is the next Shakespeare. She is no where near that good. Quite frankly, she needs to get off her high horse and give her fans, the reason that she has a career in the first place, what they want! Besides, did she honestly not expect this sort of thing? If she's going to be naive enough to hand out copies of the partial draft and expect everyone to be honest and trustworthy, then she defiantly needs a reality check. All actions have consequences. She needs to accept them and move on! I mean no offense to anyone, but I am a Twilight fan, not a Stephanie Meyer fan. Just the fact that we're all here writing "please finish the book" comments, and Meyer continues to do NOTHING and simply leave use waiting with baited breath, is enough to show that she's either soaking up the publicity and being a jerk, or is being childish to the extreme.

Ok… 1. If u read all for books in 4 days, then ur not enjoying it. Ur rushing thru it and what's the point of rushing when its something u love? I took my time with each book and it was worth it. I love these books so much. I started reading twilight as soon as it came out. Before the hype. And I could see it being made into a movie immediately. I want midnight sun to come out so bad…but the whole twilight thing will be over as soon as the last movie comes out. So I think she needs to get on with it and keep writing. Stephanie is a great writer and everything she writes will be a success.

I relate to the comment that the mom posted here on the discussion thread. I am a licensed social worker and I read what my kids read beforehand to check for content. Apart from a few sections (Breaking Dawn would be hard for a preteen or early teen to relate to) I have been open with the idea that my 12 year old can read the books as she feels comfortable and we can ask questions. I believe the books are excellent writing/compelling to read. Even my 12 year old asks if we will ever find out more about Edward- she had heard from friends that a book might come out. I akin Ms. Meyer's response as to how someone would feel if they caught someone cheating, plagiarizing her material, etc. Look at it this way- would you want to have someone go out and post your diary out for everyone to see? Much of the contents of a diary are private and written in an emotional state. The writing would be rough, and perhaps you would end up with exposure to your thoughts you never intended to share with anyone. A writer is a professional, and "bootlegging" a version of a rough draft would be like turning in a Thesis half completed and not spell-checked. Give Ms. Meyer some time to figure out how she can recreate where she was at. When you are writing you get "into a zone". Throwing something like this out there is bound to create feelings that would alter the book in a way that the author did not intend. Let the mom spend time being "mom" and wife. She has likely spent much less time with them as she has been fighting deadlines, press deals, promotions for the books and movie(s). She deserves a well-earned break and it is selfish of anyone to "push her" into something she feels she can't get into now.

By the way, while you are waiting for something to be resolved, read or buy the audiobook "The Host". Definitely one of the most interesting sci-fi/fantasies I have read. Kudos, Ms. Meyer! Wonderful book!

I am a mom of 3 ages 12-8 and three of them love the Twilight Movie and the 12 year old who hates to read books is picking all four of them up. Mrs.Meyers did a wonderful job on these books. I do hope she changes her mind on Midnight Sun. I also think it would be great for her to write New Moon in Jabobs thoughts instead of Bella's. It is hard to believe that a 29 year old woman would love the books and movies as much as I do. I am counting down the days till Twilight in on DVD and the others are out also. Please Mrs.Meyers change your mind.

Someone please tell Stephenie to continue the book! I didn't even read any of it! I just read that she was planning to not write it, but I've been waiting for soooo long for it! Stephenie, if you are reading this, please, don't stop writing Twilight books! My life is Twilight! When I read Twilight, I am in a different world away from this madness people call Earth. Please continue writing. My life is never the same without Twilight.

How about you guys stop yelling at Stephenie! It is not nice and it probably makes her think about not writing it at all. It said INDEFINITELY, which means NOT DEFINITE. Put yourself in her shoes! She worked hard on her book only to find most of it ILLEGALLY posted! What if that happened to you? 1. someone stole from you 2. you worked hard on it 3. you wanted it to be a surprise 4. most things are worth the wait 5. people keep yelling at you for your decision to wait a little longer 6. what if she wanted to take some time to cool down and not put her anger in the book? Do you want a horrible book? If you keep yelling at her either a) there will be no book or b) the book would be horrible. If you guys stop it would probably be just like one of the awesome books she has already written. Which one do you want?

Actually, indefinite can also mean continuously, forever, endlessly, etc. Which I am sure is what she meant by indefinitely. Oh and f.y.i., she did not mean for it to be a surprise, else it would not have been posted on her website for the past few years. Quite frankly, I think she has had enough time to think and wallow in self-pity. And how hard can it be to re-write a book that you have already written, about a story and character you have lived and breathed for the past few years? Ugh. I don't care anymore, I'm going to go read a book by a REAL author! You hear that Stephenie Meyer?? You just lost a fan due to this whole ridiculous affair! Just write the book for goodness sake! Besides, all this obsession with Twilight is starting to get old and a little pathetic. I've seen everything from Twilight coffee to a Twilight board game! Really people? Really? It is a BOOK, not a religion. Don't get me wrong, I still want to read the book and if Meyer FINALLY writes it, I will get it, but she is sooo off my favorite author list until further notice. :-p

@Kitty: I agree with you on her part in what happened…I also believe that she is throwing a tantrum about it getting released and readers who do like her books are the ones paying the price…Anoter person commented that we should pretty much suck up to her…Why? it's her fan's that made her who she is…She was a no name author until twilight and the fans gave her fame and success. Instead of sucking it up for the fans, She is choosing not to finish it…I really lost a lot of respect for her..A lot of authors have had this happen to them and i don't see them refusing to finish their novels….

I really enjoyed reading Stephenie Meyer's books. I hated going to the library just to check them out, and reread them. So, I decided to download the PDF files so that I wouldn't have to. That's when I noticed the Midnight Sun, it never said it was incomplete, or a draft. I thought maybe the library didn't have it, and I never checked search to see if it was an actually book. I read it all and noticed it wasn't all the way through…It never dawned on me to skim down and see if it wasn't finished. So why is she blaming people for reading it. When we didn't know at the time? It's not our fault. I never found out till I was at the end of the draft. I honest think that she should continue writing, and finish it, it was really good. I read the entire thing in less then a day. I couldn't take my eyes off the computer screen. It kept me reading, and I enjoyed it. I got anxious while I reading it, and kept wondering what was going to happen next. Then to find out that's it? I was mirserable to found out that I'm not going to be able to get to finish something I started? That's cracked up, I hope she changes her mind. I don't blame her being upset, but I think she should continue with Midnight Sun. I honestly enjoyed it from his point, as much as I did from Bella's.

Oh my gosh, people are still commenting this???
Give it a rest! You know she's gonna write Edwards point of view! And what's up with the people saying that Twilight "is going away"??? Uhh neggative even if she doesn't write Edwards p.o.v, that doesn't mean you're gonna lose Twilight! What's the matter, c'mon this is all old news! End of discussion already! Stephenie said she was dissapointed that her story leaked before she had time to finish, correct, and edit. But she also said that she'll probably write the next book because she doesn't wanna let her fans down!So shaddawp! And stop your bitchin. She's gonna write so chill…

I really hope that steph can cheer up about this whole thing and continue writeing, I love her books and she can't stop now :( I don't know why, but after discovering that the stars of the twilight movie were given the very drafts of midnight sun that was leaked at about the same time, I've had a nagging suspision that one of them did it. I think it was Pattinson, one of the many reasons I don't like him. Also, he is ugly and I find it insulting that they let him play Edward in the movie. I have spocken

I have read all 4 books. I like the Twilight Saga a lot. I can see where Stephenie is coming from though. My best friend is righting a book too and so am I, and it would be horrible if they were posted on the internet without our knowlege. I feel sorry for Stephenie. I really wish she would continue the Twilight Saga, because a lot of people like it. If she doesn't I hope she had a good time writing the Twilight Saga, but a lot of us will always wonder what Edward's point of view was in the books. We should also thank her for writing the books she has, because they are wonderful books. Thanks

@Claudia: Seriously – to all of you saying that Stephenie Meyer just needs to "get over it" and give the fans what they want. Are you a writer? A musician? An artist of any sort? If you are you would know that emotions affect the final outcome. I LOVE the Twilight Saga and I really hope that Stephenie does finish and publish Midnight Sun. She needs to be allowed to to it on her own time though. She needs to be able to find the mental place she was in when she wrote the other books. If she can't do that, then Midnight Sun is not going to flow well with the other books and fans will be disappointed. Just back off and be patient.

I think it was a good idea for her to write this series in Edward's view, we have so much that we didn't know what he was thinking or feeling. It would have been a great book so we could know what was going on in his head also. It was wrong that someone would post this on the internet, it was her own privacy and it was taken away. When she was done with it and everything was to her liking she would have put it out just like the rest of her books. Why would someone even think of hurting someone in that way, it is not right and hopefully they will learn from this and not do it again. I was one of the many people wanting to read her new series and am very upset that I will not get to read it until she wants to continue it. In some ways I wish she will not continue because that was HER book and it was put into the hands of people she trusted and dispersed onto the internet.

you dont know how much we've cried (your fans) because you haven't finished Midnight Sun. I know that I have cried almost everytime I think about it. I completely understand where you're coming from, but you are breaking millions of fans hearts. I pray every night that you change your mind. I love Edward, and the whole Twilight Saga. I think every fan out there will agree with me when I say what I say now. We love you. We all want you to finish your books. Please, don't put it on hold indefinatly! Write it later. Not write now or anything, because I know you dont want to, but PLEASE finish it within the next year or two. And please write the rest of the books. PLEASE! I relize what this person has put you through. But just think about all the fans' hearts your breaking. I love you and your books. Think about how many fans you will lose. I will cry, but also keep hoping and praying that you will change your mind. For your fans. Peace, love, and Twilight forever. :) Love ur books 4ever.

I read Midnight Sun. It was an appetizer for me, so now I want the main course. I loved learning this side of Edward. He is a learning experience that had me falling into his vampire personality. Whoever your betrayor, Mrs Myers, they took a most precious bite off your apple-please don't lay it down. Eat the rest of it, and let your fans know how it tasted by telling us about our Edward in Midnight Sun!

I hate that the person has ruined the opportunity for Stephenie Meyers to release another great book. I think that it was totally wrong and malacious of him to do so. But i think that it is un-fair to her fans that she has stopped writing. I also know that she has feelings and has the right to do whatever she wants…but i mean like i own the books and adore them. I really wanted the Twilight sagas to go farther then Breaking Dawn.

To Stephenie Meyer: I hope that you take into consideration to re-do Midnight Sun for your fans. You are an inspiration and you are the reason i read so many books each day. You made me love reading. I really reallly deeply believe you should go on and make Midnight Sun and make it bigger and better then what that guy posted. Please :)

To the illegally posting things bastard: Don't post peoples things without their permission and i hope the cops get YOU!!!!!!

The first book was a good idea, i just think it should have been written by someone else. Some of the things 'Meyer' writes is really compelling, however its very repetetive. She is also letting alot of people down and acting a little spoilt by putting her new book on hold because of a leak. She should be stronger than this, its showing the weak side to her personality and writing ability.

@tom: I so agree. Meyer needs to just get over herself and finish the book! Yes, her rights were violated, yes she has a right to stop writing, and yes she should be angry. But honestly! Enough is enough! Boo-hoo for you Stephenie! You shouldn't have handed out that partial draft if you wanted it to be safe. And FYI this is entirely YOUR fault! Your poor decision making should not cause us (loyal Twilight fans) to be punished. This whole thing is utter selfishness.

I agree with you (dalfiuss) on your assessment of the characters, and I wish that Stephanie had put more depth to them. However, I disagree on your opinion of the story in Edwards POV. Edward, in my opinion, is a deeper character than Bella and has to go through a lot more than she does. Especially in Twilight. I read the rough draft of Midnight Sun, and the fact that there are about as many pages in it as there is in Twilight while not even half-way done is testimony to that. Edward's view is far more mature than Bella's, and the story is much different.

OMG soooo many comments. I've read a few and I can understand the many different points of view there are. Although I find some of the responses to Stephenie's threat of just quiting midnightsun more intresting than the books themselves, I think I remember reading somewhere that she wanted to continue midnightsun in 2 years or something. I think she said that she wanted to do it when everyone has already forgot about it because she only likes to write when she feels alone. So apparently she doesnt feel alone when everyone is talking about it. When I read that I really had a wtf? moment. I mean, i get where she's coming from (if that was even really her words- the website said it was from her interview?) But u know, I was kinda ed. I don't want to wait 2 years to read something that i'm excited about now. I mean, i like the twilight series but i'm not obsessed with it. Her books are fun to read but I know they aren't classics. I wish she would continue it and hopefully get over the whole issue but if she doesn't, well, there are plenty of vampire books in the world. And like some said, many people will be satisfied with fanfictions. I would personaly prefer to read the real thing or not at all but that's just me. What I do definetly agree with and dislike about Stephenie Meyer is that she was naive to just hand out copies of her draft to people she barely knew. I know she gave at least one to that director of the twilight movie and Robert Pattinson. I guess I don't know if she spent loads of time with them or not but even if they weren't the ones who leaked it ( since she gave out others too but only she knows which one was leaked and who leaked it and she wont tell who that was) it still seems she was a little too trustworthy. Well, i guess she doesnt care about us that much. She's ed at the people who read her thing ileagally and shes ed at the rest of us for presuring her too much. I'm was angry at the people who read it too and started this crap but honestly if i had found her draft (before she put it "legally" on her site) I would have read it too. So now I put blame on the person who leaked it in the first place. But apparently it doesnt matter since she ignores all of the people who put up desperate pleas for her to finish it -_-. So I feel less respect for her. Regardless of anything else it IS her responseibilty to finish that book. For the sake of the fans, her title as an author, and for her characters. Maybe i'm getting a little too noble here but i wanna read the rest damn it! But guess she just has to get over it and hopefully she will either finish it or at least make a definite anouncement that she wont and not just keep dragging people along panting for it.

@Claudia: I completely agree. Every estrogen filled teenager in my school is literally OBSESSED. They never stopped talking about it. And apparently all of them are going to marry Robert Pattinson, the Jacob guy, the Emmett guy, and the Jonas brothers -_-. So they basically want a reverse harem.
I even overheard one girl saying she prays to Stephenie Meyer to finish Midnightsun. Not to god for Meyer to finish it. She prays TO Stephenie Meyer! o.O sometimes I worry people will start a religion. Is it true that some girls cut there throats with their nails when they saw Robert Pattinson come out somewhere!? Well they'll commit suicide when they find out he's doing a move called "little ashes" which is rated R for the gay scene that happens between him and some other guy while they're naked in a lake.

I really want Stephenie to finish Midnight Sun. I havent read the draft posted on the internet, trying to stay loyal to Stephanie Meyer, but I want to read the book so much. I think she should finish the book for all her fans, and try to move on from the leak. I know a book is always better in its last version, and that Stephanie didnt want people to read Midnight Sun before it was published, but she could start the book over, change it a lot, and make as great as all the other books. But it is her choice, and whatever her choice is, is the one i want to respect

I agree, it is pretty depressing about Midnight sun and I would so love her to start writing it again. This was my first time reading the partial draft via her website and I love reading it from Edward's perspective.
