Wanted 40 Stephenie Meyers fans for Good Morning America participation
Posted by pelirroja - 26/07/07 at 02:07 pmAs many of you know, Stephenie will be appearing on Good Morning America (barring a major national crisis breaking) on August 7, 2007. Some lucky Lexicon members like Be My Escape, Alice, and me applied to be audience members and have already gotten confirmations. Well…we need more people. I just received an email from Stephenie’s publicist, Elizabeth, and Good Morning America wants 40 fans(in addition to those already confirmed) of Stephenie to participate that day. Here’s part of the email from Elizabeth:
GMA finally got back to me, so is there any way you guys can help me get 40 NY area fans for GMA? Basically they need to be at the studio by 6:30 a.m. on Tuesday, August 7th. The show runs from 7-9 a.m. Fun t-shirts, signs and screaming encouraged!
So after I stopped laughing because she thought it would be hard to get 40 rabid fans to NYC, I emailed Elizabeth back and here is the plan we hatched to do this in the fairest way possible. If you are available to be at the Good Morning America Studios in New York City on August 7, 2007 from 6:30am-9:00am then see the directions below (pay attention and follow them exactly, quality counts!)
If you are 100% positive you can attend (no maybes, I mights, I have to check with my mom…don’t email unless you know for sure. This is a commitment! ) do the following:
send an email to pelirroja_ljc@yahoo.comthe header of that email must say Lexicon GMA Participantin the body of the email you must stateYour Lexicon nameYour real namethe real names of anyone else coming into the studio to participate with you (like your mom, siblings, etc.)
The first 40 participants to check in with the info requested will have their information forwarded by me to Elizabeth. Elizabeth will then email you with complete details and answer any questions you might have.
EDITED BY PEL: We have the 40 people needed. If more space becomes available we will repost.

PS. Since this got buried in yesterday’s new, Borders has an AWESOME video of an interview conducted with Stephenie and fans (a bunch of whom are Lexiconers) on their website.
PPS. I know in our recent podcast Alphie and I called out for all fans to rally and have Eclipse reach the same heights as Harry Potter. For you fans overseas who don’t fancy waiting months, I confirmed with Faith of Changing Hands Bookstore that they are more than happy to ship autographed copies of Eclipse overseas. For that matter they’ll ship autographed copies anywhere in this hemisphere too. So if Stephenie isn’t going to be in your neck of the woods for a signing, and you want a signed copy, you can get one from Changing Hands.

ahhhh! thats so awesome!! i cant wait to see her and you guys on gma! i would give anything and everything to be there. i’m still trying to find out how to get into the coral gables place for SM’s visit. hmmm…despite the fact i wont be able to go, i’ll bug my mom and dad till they cant take it and then they’ll have no choice but to let e…YEAH RIGHT! lol in my dreams!!!
–ooh first to comment–
wow this sucks…… i really wanted to go see stephenie but ill be on vacation that week!!!!!!!!! i would so go though lol!!!! ughhhh…
OMG!! OMG!!! Flippin’ awesome…(did I just use the word awesome?)…Oh wait I don’t live in NYC. *starts crying* well hopefully I’ll see Stephenie in GA!
i have tickets, but i don’t know if i can go yet. i’m trying really, really, really hard to get a ride! i hope i get to see everyone there!
I MIGHT be able to go, depending on where it is. My dad works around 6th ave. What would be required for you to get a ticket?
I live in Wyoming. Nothing big ever happens here. Thats ok though.
Well, I’m definately setting up my tivo for this one! I’m glad that Stephenie will be on GMA and not Today. That Meredith Vieira totally grilled JK Rowlings, who tried not to spoil the book but was put on the spot a few times. For example, MV asked JKR which was the hardest chapter to write. JKR simply answer Ch 31 in HP and the DH. Then MV goes on to state “isn’t that the chapter where….” then totally gives it away! I had to stop watching!! I want to watch and enjoy the interview with Stephenie and get psyched about the new book. I hope that the GMA exposer will show what a great author Stephenie is and encourage others to enjoy all three books!
I wish I could goooooo
i’m trying to rope my two friends into going, since nyc is not that far away.
I want to go but my parents wouldn’t let me….I live on Long Island so it’s not that far away but the time is too early…
this is so unfair. i’m going to NY same day but i will be leaving at 11am. i won’t be able to get Eclipse for a while and now i’m going to miss her on Good Morning America! we are going to be in the same state and i’m not even going to see her, this is depressing.
do the tickets cost $????
That is SO NOT COOL! I wanna go! But of course i have to live in Montana the place that nobody ever thinks of or visits *glares at a picture of Stephenie Meyer*, and i have to be poor so I can’t hop a plane and see her! Ugh this SUCKS!
Okay i’m done with my ranting. I hope all the people that get to go have fun.
To everyone going: How lucky for you! I wish I could be there, but I am content with staying home and watching it on television. Hopefully they’ll show some of you!
I’ve already started to get my friends to buy within the first two days, and to buy more than one copy if they can haha. I’ll be buying two!
NOOOO!
I’m from Canada and I’m in NYC right now!!
BUt we’re leaving on the 7th.
T_____T
Do you know if they broadcast that show on any channel in the UK? And at what time, after the time difference? Thanks so much!
Wow. August 7th is a Tuesday. I hate to think I might be working that day…I probably will be. *Sigh*
just sent in my email.. anyone know if they’ve picked all forty yet?
i sooo wish i could go. . . . . but i’m flat broke so i probably cant which sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wonder if cost money . . .
-high pitched scream- i made itttt. me and my friend are like, freaking out right now.
That is funny. Like it’d be hard to get 40 Twilight fans anywhere. Too bad I’m on the wrong side of the country! Have fun Pel, and anyone else who goes!
i so wish i could go but i freakin’ live in mn and my mom wouldn’t let me go!!!!
i guess i’ll just have to watch it on tv in the morning
i will soo do it!!
Hey! I just sent in my email and I hope I can go!!!
I live in NYC, so If anyone has an extra ticket could you let me know…please.
I really hope I get one….
Fingers crossed,
K. Feliz
p.s If you have an extra ticket let me know at Kristin.Feliz@mu.edu That would be awesome guys
OMG!!! i HAVE to go!! thats sooo awesome >
anyone know if they’ve got their 40 ppl yet?
Aww! I wanna do this! This is sooo unfair! Why does it have to be in New York!?!!? Regardless, i’ll be whatching it on TV!!!
Does any one know what network GMA runs on? is it the CD, ABC? I need to know because even though i cant go, i want to whatch it!
that is so lame that she is in nyc!!!!!!!!!!! i live in OREGON and that is like ACROSS THE COUNTRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! stephenie meyer would never come here.
i just signed on to e-mail pel to say i could go (my fiend was coming and was gonna fund our little trip) and they have the 40 people. I am soooo upset!!!!!
lilly- it runs on abc
You know… my family camping trip came at a really bad time…
Hey, someone should like, record it so all of us unlucky fans who can’t watch it could see on like youtube. That would be so great!
Does anybody here kno how to contact Stephenie? if so could u please tell me? That would be GREAT!
does anybody know any place else i could watch the borders book club thing, because it keeps freezing up at the exact same spot every time i watch it on that website. or maybe someone could put it on youtube? ugggh.
-smiles stupidly- Can’t wait. I’m superly excited. To all those people who live across country, don’t worry. I waited and whoo hoo!
Emmy, you can contact her with the address in one of the previous entries. =]
I have 4 extra tickets. Click “Alice” to PM me.
