Attention all Twilight fanatics, the writer behind the beloved stories, Stephenie Meyer, appeared on Oprah's show this past Friday for an exclusive interview. The Twilight author talked about everyone's favorite vampire series, which will see the sequel Twilight: New Moon movie open in theaters nationally on November 20th.
Meyer revealed that she came up with the ideas for her Twilight stories due to the fact she had 3 kids and couldn't sleep at night. She began jotting down ideas in a notebook and even had a vivid dream one night that became the basis for Twilight Chapter 13. She also struggled with the idea of turning the books into movies, saying that she was particularly concerned with casting the role of Edward Cullen, lead vampire. She described Robert Pattinson as exactly how she pictured the character in her head though. Meyer also noted that she changed the ending to "New Moon" (the story), because she felt it needed more action, based on a suggestion by her sister.
In a touching moment, students and the librarian from Bolivar Middle School in Missouri also appeared on the show via satellite. They all (staff & students) have become huge fans of the Twilight series at their school and the library has a waiting list of 1,000 eager to get their hands on "New Moon". Oprah and Stephenie Meyer presented the school with 600 copies of the complete 4-book set as a special gift.
Now that Stephenie Meyer has appeared on Oprah, even more rabid fans should be lining up to see the latest installment. Check out information on Twilight New Moon Tickets and Showtimes!
