And the Twilight ball keeps right on rolling. Yen Press will be releasing an amazing graphic novel featuring Twilight. Entertainment Weekly had a chance to speak the The Twilight Saga creator, Stephenie Meyer.
The text of your original novel is boiled down so carefully that it doesn’t feel like anything is missing. Were you the one who did that?
I was definitely involved. I didn’t do the original “script” for the book, so to speak. But when I got the dialogue with the images, I did a lot of tinkering. In a couple of places, I asked for missing scenes to be inserted. For example, the conversation in the car that Bella and Edward have after she faints in Biology.
How does the feeling of reading the graphic novel compare to that of reading the original? Does it bring something new to the experience for you?
For me, it takes me back to the days when I was writing Twilight. It’s been a while since I was really able to read Twilight; there is so much baggage attached to that book for me now. It seems like all I can see are the mistakes in the writing. Reading Young’s version brought me back to the feeling I had when I was writing and it was just me and the characters again. I love that. I thank her for it.
When this project is done, are you done with Twilight?
I can’t say that I am done with Twilight forever. I’m not working on anything new Twilight-related now, and probably not for a while. But there’s still a possibility that I’ll go back and close some of the open doors.
What do you think, Twihards? Are you excited about this?
I cannot wait to get my hands on these, but there will only be 350,000 copies so how will this work? Will we have to camp outside Barnes & Noble?(because you know I will lol) And I firmly believe Stephenie Meyer will complete Midnight Sun at some stage, she wouldn’t just not finish it, she doesn’t strike me as the type to leave any stone unturned, so we will have to do what we do best…hurry up and wait. ![]()
Twilight: The Graphic Novel, Vol. 1 will be released March 16th and can be ordered now.

2nd!
2nd?
In borders last year, there was a sign saying that Midnight Sun was being released this year….
FYI
congrats on 1st gabs!!! damn u're fast! hehehe ^_^
Must've been another Midnight Sun…
Thank you
you are not that slow either.
*le sigh*
I guess I'll stay on the safe side and not get my hopes up.
I love how the images dont look any Kristen or Robert related!
Still not my image of Bella and Edward, but, honestly, a lot better
And if that was ha hint to Midnight Sun – well, that would be seriously amazing!
I don't see the light at the end of the tunnel just yet. With The Host being made into a feature film and this comic book of sorts, Midnight Sun keeps getting pushed back.
Now I wish I had never heard of the book because I really don't like getting my hopes up.
er… not really… *smiles sheepishly* hehehe ^_^
Hmm, which cover looks like it represents MS the best?
http://www.shelfari.com/books/4338723/Midnight-Sun
not done w/ twilight forever?!?!
so does that mean that maybe there will an alternate ending to BD or some kind of update w/ the family written by the queen bee? that would b pretty awesome.
and i would really love 4 her to finish MS. im sorry that i read it…sort of
I have GOT to have this graphic novel! It looks beautiful!
And for Stephenie to say that she is going to “close some open doors” is wonderful!! I feel bad that she has had trouble reading Twilight, because she sees mistakes. Don't feel bad Stephenie! We all LOVE Twilight!
But I do agree, she has so much going on that who knows when she'll get it done.
She has “The Host” movie going on, plus she said before she wanted “The Host” to be a trilogy. She has the Breaking Dawn script and movie to consult on, so who knows when she is going to have time for “closing the open Twilight doors”…,
It probably is not just Midnight Sun, either. She has said that she would like to write more about Leah and Bree, and that she has in her mind what happened after BD, so she has several options, but at least she says that she WANTS to do it!
I also read somewhere that Summit is considering doing sequels AFTER Breaking Dawn! Wow…
The only project I´m expecting from her is Midnight Sun…all the other projects she has ( not related to this) or the script of BD, sorry but the circle is not closed…
I have been wanting Carlisle's story to be told for a long time, Hello without Carlisle, there would had been no Edward. Can you imagine what Carlisle has seen in his 300 year life? the only vampire that has never killed a human being?
March 16th I am there in front of BN:)
lets pray twi god that she finsh MS:)
i would absolutely love for her to write some kind of full length story for all the vamps. i think bree would be pretty cool.
and i definitely like the idea of sequels after BD. while reading i kept feeling like there was something missing and that there should be more.
but anything that steph writes i would definitely read
when did you see the sign tha said MS will be released this year? hmmm that's weird cause SM did'nt mention it well Borders better double their facts to be sure maybe I will check at my mall where there is a Borders and see what is going on
well said I don't want to get my hopes up either so having that been said who knows when SM will get back to completing MS if there is still a MS I am hoping:) and yeah with The Host being made into a flim it seems pretty dim on when she will complete MS:(
now this is what I like to read and hear woo this is going to be amazing:) I would love to know what happen to Leah(my name sake:))and Bree:) and I am glad she is going to close some open doors on the Twilight I am so thrilled:)
First midnight sun, and then a fifth “bella book”, and then one about alice, and one about…
No but seriously this looks awesome!
you are right I would love to know more about Carlisles story and what his relationship was like with his father(before he was truned) growing up and yeah it would be interesting to see what Carlisle has seen during his 300 years of life and yeah without Carlisle there would'nt be Edward or a Cullen family
I dont belive it for one minute, not until steph says MS will be released
ahahhaaaaa
complete Midnight Sun !!!!
I knew Santa got my letter….!
*joins hands with leah and bows head in prayer*
Oh merciful twi god…please guide Stephanie towards the light…give her the inspiration and passion to finish Midnight Sun as it was meant to be and let us be blessed with the all-consuming delight of Edward Cullen's POV.
Amen
LMAO!
I'll be online at 12am, March 16th buying my copy…hopefully I'll get lucky.
I have to agree….she should definately finish up Midnight Sun
well said I hope she does complete MS I would love it:) oh yes let us pray *takes Pazty hand*
So true….I would love to see Carlisle's story unfold.
this weekend this little chickie is going to go too BN and pre-order it if I can I hope so or stand in line and get it like you:)
“In a couple of places, I asked for missing scenes to be inserted.” -SM
MR, are you listening? Haha.
Oh it would be awesome if she completes Midnight Sun! And I would love her to write another book, maybe about the Volturi? That would be awesome… or about the Quileute Legends… Or Jaspers background… Or what happens after BD with Jacob and Renesmee…. aww so many possibilities… hehe
life is good for the month of March:) and LOL she do a Bella book then Alice:) seriously it would be interesting to know more about Alices life before she was a vampire:)
exactly I agree I don't believe it either but I am going to ask Borders it does not make any sense at all and again I don't believe it but I am courious as to why Borders would announce the book to be released when SM has'nt even finsh it let alone anything else it is just weird:(
Yeah
it would be intresting to read about her being protected from james, and to read about her first “vision”. She must've been like “wth was that?” :p
Pre-order!!! Yesss!!! Now, why didnt i think of that?! LOL There's a BN across the street from work, i can go on my lunch. hahahaha
Hello!! Will the graphic novels include all 4 books??? Or is it only just Twilight?
My goodness ONLY 350,000 copies. I just ordered my on amazon. All the books would be sold out by the time I try to got buy one. Does amazon only have a limted amount of those copies?
I just pre-ordered on Amazon! Yay!
Ordered mine too on Amazon….they will ship to CANADA!!! YIPPPPPEEEEEE

I don't care if I'm old and gray by the time she finishes MS, just as long as she does.
*joins in*
Really really really hope steph finishes midnight sun
You're Welcome. I hope you enjoy them.
The cover shows what Bella ACTUALLY wore in the book when she was in the meadow with Edward!
ugh foiled again! They are blocked here at work *pouts*
I wouldn't worry on ew.com it clearly states that “Yen Press will publish Twilight: The Graphic Novel, Vol. 1 on March 16, with a first printing of 350,000 copies”
It doesn't say it will “Only” print 350,000 copies. =)
heh heh heh I cracked the code!!! I got in!! im such a wannbe hacker, now just for making me sweat im gonna print it at work too BAWHAWHAWHAWHAWHAW
'Closing open doors'- what else could there be besides Midnight Sun?? Everyone keep their fingers crossed!!!!
You guys honestly rock! Im heading over to amazon right now!!
omg…I just realized had bad I want this book…And I'm not from U.S. Amazon rules…The graphic guy looks goooood:D…But Bella looks more like a cheerleader now:-s
hahaha thats funny

yeah it used to be blocked for me too.
Read Missing Dawn its really good …for those who like stuff like that.
Tell me if youl liked it.
I hope Renesmee dies unexpectedly and Jacob gets to have a proper ending with a hot GIRL (NOT CHILD!) that he deserves.
*runs and hides behind rock from people throwing stones*
I'm sorry! But Jacob got gypped! He deserved so much better.
Oh! O_O
okay well then I don't need to pre-order then. I'll just keep my order unless its cheaper in-stores.
Thanks
You need to read this and you mind just might change. I pormise, it changed mine.
Post-Breaking Dawn: http://kariann1222.livejournal.com/2754.html
*promises not to throw stones if you read this*

I hope she finishes Midnight Sun! I love Breaking Dawn, but it feels like its missing something. Like what happens between Jacob and Renesmee?? And just what happens to everyone? I would love to know, I have my own little fantasies but they aren't any good. *grins sheepishly*
I refuse to believe that Stephenie will just leave Midnight Sun unfinished! If it was me, I would keep writing and never stop.
What will we do after Breaking Dawn's movie comes out…. it can't be the end to the saga. * sadly wipes tear from eye*
hey everybody! now, i am not the type of person to repeatedly knock you over the head with trying to get you to read my story BUT i will try to persuade you ppl! lol
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5388138/1/This_Is_O... <— but I must say my biggest fan is someone who despises and loathes Jacob and Nessie! and if i'm getting to someone like that, i think its worth checkin' out! just saying…lol
the graphic novel looks cool, but i won't get it. not into the comics and now that Kristen and Rob are framed into my mind as Bella and Edward the images don't really look like them and I don't like it. lol
but hmmmmmmm going back to close doors…midnight sun perhaps? would love that!
def not creepy. i think Aladdin is hot! lol
Me, too!
Let's just pray that she gets some time to do it!! We all know she doesn't need the money…
PLEASE NM.org remind me the date this comes out! I really want these, It will be a collectors item! Look Great by the way!
Excuse me? I find that comment very rude! You want a baby to die?
Aladdin is gorgeous! Haha. I've loved him ever since I first watched the movie. XD
i know right. that vest, big pants, barring chest, the hair. lol. love aladdin!
That Edward reminds me of Samantha's bf in Sex and the City. Ahhhh… HAWT STUFF.
LMAO! Have you been to California Adventures and seen their Aladdin show there? The guy who plays Aladdin is so HOT. Seriously.
no never been to Cali. i live in New York. i bet he is. i mean come on, look who he has to live up to
Welllll….I say whenever you go to Cali, you MUST go see him. >.<'
Know what other disney guy is hot? John Smith… and his really skinny red-headed friend. Hahahaha. Ohhhhh and Prince Eric from the Little Mermaid. *swoon* Hahahah.
Welllll….I say whenever you go to Cali, you MUST go see him. >.<'
Know what other disney guy is hot? John Smith… and his really skinny red-headed friend. Hahahaha. Ohhhhh and Prince Eric from the Little Mermaid. *swoon* Hahahah.
definitely Prince Eric….and Prince Stephan…i think his name is, the one from Sleeping Beauty. lol
Yeah he is! lol.

omgggg! I know, right!! Hahaha.
oh definitly I agree:)
oh yes do join in:)
oh cool then I can pre-order:)
oh yeah no kidding I bet she would be thinking wth LOL well who knows maybe Stephenie will do that I hope:)
I know SM won't be writng anytime soon; if you feel there is something missing read this. Post-Breaking Dawn: http://kariann1222.livejournal.com/2754.html
It really good.
i read it, it was great! are you going to continue the story??
I'd faint from sheer excitment if Stephenie did more Twilight books. She did leave alot open to continue on with. My girlfriend wrote a 5th book on some of the open topics, so maybe that's why she hasn't heard back about it? I'll have to tell her about this site so she knows that even though nothing will happen with hers, at least there's a possiblity that more is coming. She'll be thrilled, of course. Who wouldn't be? We love Twilight!!!
I still believe that Stephenie will do MS. It's her 'baby' from Edward's POV. Who wouldn't want to keep writing Edward Cullen? Yeah!! (with crossed fingers)
Sorry to inform you but you can not post links to FF's on this site. Most are Rated M and this is a mixed age site. It's a bummer, I know. I'm always open for a good FF to read.
If you want to share a FF, you can ask for their e-mail address & send it directly. That's what we did with WA, HOFY & EP. Oh and we can't mention the full name of a FF story as well.
I'm all for self pimping FF's but we can't post links. What I did was changed my authors name on FF.net to match my NMM.org / EM.org user name. That way if someone wants to find my story, it's easy for then to find me in an authors search. That or if someone wants the link, they can post their e-mail address & you can e-mail them the link. The mods will go in & delete the addy but you can find it in your Disqus replies.
Hope this helps!
I hope she hasn't let poor beloved EPOV in the dust.
I hope not either I hope EPOV will be in it and not in the dust:(I want Edwards piont of view dammit:(
According to SM's website Twilight: The Graphic Novel will be in 2 volumes, due to the length of the original book. There is no date on the 2nd volume.
That is all that is posted, but my guess is that they are going to do the entire Saga. It only makes sense to the fans and to their pockets – they are going to milk it for all it's worth – and I'm going to help them by buying them all!!
ps – I just pre-ordered mine on Amazon… when you pre-order they drastically discount the price
I'm really excited about the Graphic novels. I already pre-ordered mine on Amazon (at a discounted price). I haven't really been into graphic novels before but I have two hopes with this coming. One, that I can re-live Twilight in a new way – I think this will be a visual way of seeing the story much closer to the original than the movie could ever hope to be. Two, since my daughter is into graphic novels, that she will read them and maybe even want to read the novels, too.
As for Midnight Sun, of course I would like it finished, but since SM answered fan's questions about NM a few months ago I have been put at ease. I know she will finish it when she is ready and I will have it on pre-order as soon as it is announced. I would rather she write when she feels Edward speaking to her than because us fans are yelling at her. Until then I will enjoy re-reads and anything else SM decides to write. Looking forward to more of The Host.
Thats bites. I learn something new everyday.
I'm so buying this
woah summit wants to do more after BD!!!!
okay new theory, they are taking so long with a BD release date and getting everyone signed on because they are also talking to SM about writing more books so they aare waiting to get her to do that and then getting the actors to sign on for more than just BD!
oh my god….oh my god…. im hyperventilating!
this would make my life…..like no lie, MY WHOLE LIFE! haha
Jason Lewis! That's who I saw in my mind when I first read the Twilight books…long before I had seen pictures of Rob as Edward!
You can pre-order it on Amazon. You get the lowest pre-order price, they have excellent shipping, and you don't have to worry about them running out at the store before you can get there to buy it. I did. Very simple. I get a lot of my books, DVDs, Twilight stuff there.
I personally think Stephanie Meyer is tired of all the drama associated with Twilight even though she has done a GREAT job of keeping her and her family out of the press. She…nor her offspring…and their offspring…and their offspring ever have to worry about money or working again so I don't think she will give anything more to it really. I plan on NEVER reading the end of Midnight Sun, because it will never be written. Rumors of her then writting Jacob and Renesme's story are far fetched. I think she is done with Twilight and everything associated with it.
He would have made a really good Edward. Haha. *faints* He's so beautiful. Like, I can't stare at him too much because his beautifulness hurts my eyes. Hahaha. I didn't really picture anyone as Edward, I was really angry at first when I saw Rob though because I didn't like him. But now I'm used to him as Edward. Haha. I still don't picture Rob when I reread the books/fanfics though. :/
hale yea! *twerd moments* haha thank you for liking it! lol
Alas! Although it was him I pictured as Edward at first, he would have been too old to play Edward when they filmed the movie…in his late twenties, I would think.
I like Rob at Edward. I think he hasembodied the role well.
Yeah, Jason Lewis does NOT look like a high school student at all. XD
Yeah, Rob is good now that I've gotten used to him. I just couldn't stop thinking that he was Cedric from HP in the movie. XD
OMG I LOVE YOU I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE!!! lol, his voice was soo hot!!! thank you!!! i feel a kindred spirit with you all XD and that edward cartoon is HOT it is
disney princes were hot!! lol except prince charming from snow white and cinderella but prince eric with those gorgeous cartoon eyes *swoon*
Oh yeah. Prince Charming is not cute. Hahaha. I remember him having really funny colored lips. Then his hairrrr. No. hahaha.
Yes. Prince Eric. Gorgeous. Hahah.
but alladin..HE really had it going on…
Don't have to tell me twice.
350,000 copies only? waaaaaaah! *starts to panic*
have to get my hands on that!
lol im such a perv for drawings lol
At least you admit it. I know some people who are like, “Ew. Who likes cartoon guys?” and then I find out later that they're in love with some character. XD
i know right, some people are just in plain denial but i embrace what i love XD
more power to ya, sister! lol. if they don't want the toon boys, we can take them all! wooooot.
TOTALLY ….sighs…if fictional vampire sex gods werent in such high demand =(
