TWiLiGHT is not MEYER's idea :'c
TWILIGHT = SUED!
Hollywood, CA (Associated Press) Production on the hit sequel to the popular vampire series Twilight have been halted among allegations of plagiarism by young author, Stephenie Meyer.
According to sources, Meyer has been accused of stealing the idea for her popular Twilight series of novels for young adults and teenagers from her college roommate, Heidi Stanton. Stanton, 36, of Salt Lake City, Utah, attended Brigham Young University during the early 1990's and was for a time during their sophmore year roommates at a campus dormitory with the alleged author, Meyer.
"Quite frankly, I was shocked when I began watching the movie with my husband last week. I immediately told him that she got that idea from me! I wrote a fictional short story with the same ideas when we were in college together." stated Stanton.
Mrs. Stanton's claims have some credence to them as she has documented proof that a short story with very similar idea was written by her in 1993 while she was a sophmore at BYU. English department chairperson Dr. Peter Benton was at the time a second year professor of writing and distinctly remembers Ms. Stanton's prolific writing style and the vampire story in particular.

So to make the story short, Stanson and Meyer were roommates in college, and Stanson is claiming the novel saying she was the one who wrote that story about vampires and that Stephenie only got the idea from her and Stephenie copied her and she (Stanson) has her English dept. chairperson to prove it. Why the hell would you even want to take credit for this mess? oops. yea I'm biased. lol.
Yea well, we don't know if this story is true or what but one thing's for sure..
NEW MOON HAS BEEN PUT ON HOLD.
