Vampires back in the closet

Stephenie Meyer goes on strike after unfinished book is leaked online

In a reaction worthy of any of her teen girl readers, mega-selling Twilight novelist Stephenie Meyer, has gone on strike. Upset that an unfinished version of Midnight Sun, the fifth volume in her vampire romance series, was leaked online, Meyer told fans via her website that the novel is “on hold” indefinitely. “I’d rather my fans not read this version ... 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?” She does plan to continue with a non-Twilight novel though, according to a spokesman, and plans “to be very selective about where she sends her manuscripts” from now on.
