Stephenie Meyer and the Twilight Series Where did she get her ideas from? What was her inspiration? Will there be more? If you haven’t been to Stephenie’s official website, then you are missing out! Here you will find her blog with up-to-date information as well as tons of background information for each book. Find her suggested playlist and even excerpts cut from the final drafts. See updates, trailers, and pictures from the movies. Read the first part to Midnight Sun! Check out her many fan websites. Visit the location of her books and movies: Forks, Washington. **Heads Up! Stephenie only has one official website. She no longer has her MySpace page or any other social networking pages. Watch out for the phonies!**

http://stepheniemeyer.com Twilight (book, audio CD, and video) Meyer, Stephenie Author’s Website

New Moon (book and audio CD) Eclipse (book and audio CD) Breaking Dawn (book and audio CD)

Additional Reading Suggestions You may recall that each book was loosely based on a different literary classic. Before or while you are rereading the series, consider reading the very books that Stephenie Meyer drew inspiration from and see if you can identify the commonalities! Twighlight --- Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen New Moon --- Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare Eclipse --- Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontё Breaking Dawn --- A Midsummer Night’s Dream by William Shakespeare Stephenie also shares that Anne of Green Gables series by Lucy Maud Montgomery has been a big influence on her writing.
