Say Hi to day 5!
Jul 27th, 2008 | By Kelly | Category: Book News, Site NewsHey Twilighters! Kelly here with your staff count down for Breaking Dawn! So first of all, 5 MORE DAYS! YAY!!!! We are SO close to Breaking Dawn, its unbelievable! 😀 So today I am going to share some of me favorite Twilight Saga things! So let get started!
- Music- So as many of you know part of my job here at TST is the music pages. By doing this I have so many favorite songs, the list goes on and on! Right now I am just going to list a couple, Crashed by Daughtry, Time is running out by Muse, All Fall Down by OneRepublic, Patience by Take That. These are just a couple of my many favorites! Which leads me to my next favorite Twilight thing…..
- TwiTube- One of my favorite TwiTube videos is by RubberDuckInc. (this is also how I found my newest favorite song, Patience!) So now I give you: Patience [Bella Swan; New Moon] Enjoy!
[HTML1] I also love this next video because the maker of this video (TwilightFreak1212) uses the clips really well with the song! (A fave of mine!) Yes, Its short, but I still love it! :)[HTML3]
- FanFiction- Ok well I am a big fan of fanfic! I love stories that are funny! One of my favorite fanfics it when Bella and the Cullens play hide and go seek, cross country! Check it out here! (Thanks Jenna!)Another one of my favorites is one that my BFF is writing about Rosalie and Mike. Now she is not done with it yet, but when she is I will try to post it! So sorry there is not much to my fanfic!
- What team am I? I am team Edward <3 !!!!!!! Now before all of you Team Jacob people boo me, let me say this: I really want Jacob to be happy, but I think Bella should be with Edward forever!
- My favorite book in the Twilight Saga? I would have to say Twilight because it is were the magic all started! I love how Bella and Edward have grown closer together, and the reason the have is because of what happened in Twilight!
- My favorite fan art: Let me say there are some very talented Twilight artists out there! So I am going to show you some of my favorite ones!
- My favorite quotes: Every word in Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse! Just Kidding, well sorta! I have SO many favorite quotes that it is just easier to list the books! And (of course!) I love all the quotes the other staffers have listed! So I think I am just going to leave it at that, unless you want a three page long list! LOL, sorry!
- Poll- So I wanted to see what team the fans of our website are! So please vote for your favorite team!
[HTML2]
- My Question- Well to wrap things up I want to leave you with a question! So be sure to answer is in the comments!
If you could ask Stephenie Meyer one question that she had to answer, what would it be and why?
HAPPY DAY 5! :)
I so want to read that fanfic!! Hopefully someone finds the link…
I don’t know the exact question I would ask Stephenie Meyer, but it would be something about the books, like a piece of the story I want to know or what Edward was thinking at one point in the books.
This doesn’t really have to do with Twilight (because I would probably ask her a million questions): I would her ask if she is going to right a sequel to The Host.
Jasmine (Team Edward)
haha i love those videos! and i hope someone does find that fanfic! :]
I would ask Stephenie more about the dream she had that inspired this whole thing!
I would ask Stephenie when she wrote the books did she have any one person in mind as far as looks for each character and if so who they were, like where did she get her idea of how they should look when she describes them?
hmmm… I think I would like to ask her if Jacob will ever imprint on someone that way he could be happy and understand how Bella and Edward’s love.
that’s the only question that comes to my mind now so…
THE FAN FIC KELLY WAS TALKING ABOUT:
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4208481/1/Insomniacs_Hide_And_Seek
It’s REALLY funny!
Names are always important for the characterization of the protagonists and antagonists and supporting characters…
So, I would ask her if any of the names she selected for her characters meant anything special, and why she chose to name them that way. For example… Aro, Caius and Marcus? Those names are not common so what do they mean? AND I would ask her if she based any of the characters on any character in another novel.
So many questions, so little time…. *sigh*
I wish they would have asked questions like those at the comic con or things about the movie, not stupidities like “Boxers or briefs or nothing?” Wow… That blew me away… What is the world coming to? That lady just embarrassed herself and the cast, who probably felt SO uncomfortable…. Poor Rob. =( Poor Kristen. =/
Toodles…
xoxo, Love ya, Rob.
ok i would ask SM how she came up with the cover for the books because ive been trying to figure it out and i cant lol!
I would ask her to tell me two (I’m being greedy now) scenes that she had thought of but never wrote…
I usually like to read what people have to say, not saying much myself, but after what happened at comic-con, I really wished someone would have asked great questions. I don’t think it’s a great question, but I would ask if the fans following the series have influenced the outcome of the series?
Of course, we don’t know what will happen until Saturday, but before I read the end of it, I wonder if she wrote what she really wanted or took into consideration what fans wanted. One of the comments I’ve read when she describes why each book is her favorite is that Twilight was special because she was only writing for herself, that there were no expectations from anyone.
i would want to know what would happen if a baby got bite by a vampire?
Thanks for the great tips & links to fanfic.
I would ask Stephanie if she’s given any thought to writing a series of books about the werewolves.
Go Team Switzerland!
I would love to know if animals can become Vampires. This question has been bugging me forever! And I can’t seem to find if anyone else has talked about this. But if I couldn’t ask that, I’d ask, is there going to be a sequel for The Host? I love that book!
I would ask her why she thought that the message of this story was one that needed to be told. i would ask her what kind of idea she is trying to plant inside peoples heads. i would ask if she ever felt defeated by the writing process.
Love the song!
That’s a tough question. If I ever got near enough to talk to her, I’d pick her brain until I get satisfied. lol
5 more days!
I would ask her if she ever read Fanfictions about Twilight and what she thinks about them 🙂 if she’s honored or bothered by other people using her characters and even doing OOC or AUs
Patience is definitely a great song. That’s how I found out about it, too – that video. LOL
Can’t believe that the day is almost here!
I would ask Stephenie Meyer: Are you going to write more books? not for the Twilight Saga but in general and if so what do you think there genre would be? I would ask her that because I like the way she writes and she can come up with some pretty good book ideas so I would like to read more from her.
Mine is….. Stephenie do you think I could be Jane or Hedi in New moon???? and do I really have to explain that! lol but if I had to it is because I always dreamed of being an actress or a writer! But I would so be to shocked to say anything!
I am writting a fan fic/ my own writting about vamps! I have hand written 75 pages so far. *yay!*
I would want to know if she’s going to:
a) continue the Host — make it a longer series
b) continue writing about our Forks/La Push friends in published books
c) write anything else that comes out of her brilliant mind
why? because as a fellow writer, i love to read anything possible by different authors. I haven’t really found a favorite author until Stephenie Meyer debuted (sp?) Twilight. I fell in love with these books, plus The Host, and I have to say that I love SM’s writing style. She is definitely an idol.
I completely agree with the comments on the level of idiocy with regard to the questions asked at Comic-Com. If I happened to be one of the actors/actresses at the session I would have walked away thinking that I had just wasted a good chunk of my life that I would never get back!!
My question to SM would be how does she do it?? How does she find the balance in her life to devote enough time to her children, her husband, her writing projects and all of the publicity that she does!!! How can she sit down and start writing, being completely immersed in what she is doing for 8 hours a day and then get up walk away and make dinner for the Fam??? Is that really how she does it?? Where does she draw the line with her time? How can she make it to the kids baseball games and have the date night with the hubby and STILL be able to create such captivating, moving and lovable stories?? Being somewhat familiar with the Morman faith, I can guess that her family is of the utmost importance to her. I can completely understand why she has decided to cut things back, and I commend her for it. And honestly I can’t say that I wish she would devote more time to us fans. She has been so generous, now it’s her time to ENJOY the fruits of her labors.
I am sure this question will not apeal to the teenage fans. But to those of us trying to balance our ‘normal’ lives sit in awe at what she does every day.
Come to think of it I would pose the same questions to our TST stars!! Care to wager an answer on your own account Kallie and Kassie???
THATS MY FANFIC!!!!! WOOO! (Insomniacs: Hide and Seek) I just about had a heart attack when i saw it here!!! I am SERIOUSLY dancing around the room right now! I wondered why i got a sudden surge of reviews! THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU!!!!!!
Sorry for that small outburst… *blushes*
I want to know what other kinds of books she’ll be writing in the future? Will they be different genres? or mostly romancey stuff, cause if that’s the case, i’ll defiantly keep reading!!! SM just KNOWS how to write a good love story, no matter what it is. (okay so even if it isn’t romancey i’ll still be reading lol)
Are you going to keep contiuning with the saga after Midnight sun?
i know iknow that the last book form bellas POV is breaking dawn but i mean
a girl can dream can’t she? lol
well, if i had the courage i would ask something like “does Lauren really die her hair?” it’s been implied and …welll. i want to know….
but a REAL question (because I know that one is a little silly)…
I would want to know everything i possibly could about imprinting.
I would ask her about her other stories she has been outlining on her computer. Like the stories on ghosts and mermaids and real people. I would like to know what the plot of those stories would be.
First of all I Love Wendy’s question about balancing her life. I hope you take that to New York and get it answered. My question is a little silly but I still wonder. Does she still dream about her characters or is just daydreaming during her writing time?
I would like to ask her about her other stories, like what would the spin-off be about?
