Position:Home>Books & Authors> Midnight Sun ( twilight ) ? ?Question: Midnight Sun ( twilight ) !? !? can anybody find the whole story when someone stole the copy of midnight sun by stephanie myers !?
i cant believe they ruined it for everybody !. but if you can find the story on the news or whatever that would be great !.Www@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: The whole story is not written yet - Stephenie is so upset about the leak that she has put on hold writing it!. I am really sad for Stephenie and all the fans that have been let down!. If you go to stepheniemeyer!.com then the story is on the front page!. There is a link at the bottom of the statement where you can read the first 12 chapters of the story!. I haven't read the chapters yet because I still haven't given up hope that Midnight Sun will get published one day!. Hope this helps!. x (Im so sad about this whole thing!. ;'[ lols)Www@QuestionHome@Com Here is the copy from Stephenie Meyer's page 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 have a good idea of how the leak happened as there were very few copies of Midnight Sun that left my possession and each was unique!. Due to little changes I made to the manuscript at different times, I can tell when each left my possession and to whom it was given!. The manuscript that was illegally distributed on the Internet was given to trusted individuals for a good purpose!. I have no comment beyond that as I believe that there was no malicious intent with the initial distribution!. 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!. I'd rather my fans not read this version of Midnight Sun!. It was only an incomplete draft; the writing is messy and flawed and full of mistakes!. But how do I comment on this violation without driving more people to look for the illegal posting!? It has taken me a while to decide how and if I could respond!. But to end the confusion, I've decided to make the draft available here (at the end of this message on the Midnight Sun page)!. This way, my readers don't have to feel they have to make a sacrifice to stay honest!. I hope this fragment gives you further insight into Edward's head and adds a new dimension to the Twilight story!. That's what inspired me to write it in the first place!. I do want to take a moment and thank the wonderful fans who have been so supportive of me over the past three years!. I cannot begin to tell you how much each of you means to me!. I only hope this note will stop all the confusion and online speculation so that the Twilight universe can once again become the happy escape it used to be!. After this incredibly busy year, I am now focusing on spending more time with my family and working on some other writing projects!. --Stephenie Www@QuestionHome@Com Stephenie Meyer has stated that she only released the first 12 chapters in the manuscripts that she did release!. These are available on her website!. I'm sure that her publisher and lawyers are doing collateral damage right now to get illegal leaks off of websites!. I feel for SM and I am disappointed that people that she trusted to take care of her work would leak them out (whether intentional or not)!. She did what she did for the creative integrity of her characters and unfortunately she fell victim to what is common amongst many authors!. While, I hope that Midnight Sun is eventually published, I would understand SM's intentions if it was not!. Www@QuestionHome@Com dont read the leaked copy of midnight sun! it's wrong for people to do that! it was never sent out in the first place by stephenie's or her publisher's permission!. just do her a favor &actually wait until it IS finished to read it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com From her website: http://stepheniemeyer!.com/midnightsun!.ht!.!.!. From another site: http://www!.mtv!.com/movies/news/articles/!.!.!. Www@QuestionHome@Com check her website www!.stephaniemeyer!.com since it was leaked to the internet, she posted all 12 chapters on her site anyway!. i know its so unfair that people leaked it!. sm is thinking that she might not even publish the book anymore=[Www@QuestionHome@Com well there is a version of it on her website and i think MTV had a article about it you can check fansites, usually they post articles about stuff like thatWww@QuestionHome@Com It's on her website, under the Midnight Sun category!. Stephenie Meyer should not have sent anyone rough drafts of the book in the first place!. She has no one to blame but herself!. Www@QuestionHome@Com |
