Peter Facinelli on Monroe, MI
September 13, 2010
UPDATE: Sorry, but the video is not working reliably, we have had to pull the link down.
The video is the latest in Peter Facinelli’s mall appearances. Peter routinely appears in malls across the country to speak about Alex’s Lemonade Stand, and a portion of the signings goes to support Alex’s Lemonade Stand. By our count, Peter has done well over 20 of these events this year.
Florence Welch: Team Edward or Team Jacob?
September 13, 2010
Marc Malken of E! talked to Florence Welch of the VMA nominated band Florence + the Machine about her Twilight feelings. Florence + the Machine appear on the Eclipse Soundtrack with Heavy in Your Arms.:
“Are you Twilight fan?
When I was on tour, I got into the books. Then me and my little sister got into them together. Two Christmases ago, we had the last book but we only had one between us…In the middle of the night we would be reading it to each other. And then we’d fall asleep and she’d be like, “Don’t read ahead of me!”
Team Edward or Team Jacob?
I felt really bad for Jacob in the film. I really wanted him to kiss her. But I do think Edward is pretty hot.
Do you mean Edward or Robert Pattinson?
I haven’t met Robert Pattinson in person—but I think I quite like the whole fantasy of Edward.”
Florence + the Machine won Best Art Director for their video “Dog Days Are Over”(seen below). They lost in their other nominated categories: Video of the Year, Best Rock Video, and Best Cinematography.

TwiFans: Fanjunket News: The Twilight Guide Update
September 13, 2010
Twifans has an update on the Twilight Guide. They asked Stephenie Meyer about its status during their fanjunket interview:
“Alison: And the real question was……is there any word on the official Twilight guide?
TST: Now that “Bree” (the book “The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner”) is out, and it’s out of there…
SM: Oh, I know…
Alison: Please tell us, it’s not like Midnight Sun, like you’re not doing it?
SM: Oh no, no, it’s continuing. It just…it keeps evolving. So then we have to catch up… I don’t know. I hope that when it comes out, it’s amazing. Because it seems like a lot of effort has been put into it at this point. And it is kind of evolving, and “let’s do this, no let’s do this”. It’s going to have a lot of great information, and it’s really cool. I think my favorites are the genealogy charts for the Quileutes. They are beautiful….they’re lovely.
TST: We want to know when it’s going to be done. That’s what everyone wants to know. They’re like “I’ve pre-ordered it!”

Bella’s Birthday/Stephenie Meyer Celebration Kicks Off in Forks
September 11, 2010
All sorts of things are going on in Forks this weekend. The post office has even gotten into the act and created a special stamp! According to the Forks Forum (the local newspaper):
(photo credit: Chris Cook)
“The Forks Post Office and the LaPush Office are issuing two new Twilight-themed stamped envelopes just in time for this weekend’s Bella’s Birthday celebration at Tillicum Park.
The LaPush Post Office is selling special pictoral postmark of Team Jacob and Forks Post Office is offering a special pictoral Team Edward postmark. Each envelope also has a special Forks cancellation and a birthday cake stamp. Both envelopes sell for $4 each.
Last year the Twilight special issue sold several thousand copies. The special stamped envelopes were only available for a short time and are now collector’s items.
A Forks Post Office van will also again be set up at Tillicum Park to sell the Twilight envelopes, plus offer mailing services for Twilight fans who purchase souvenir gift items from Twilight vendors.
For more information on the envelopes send an email to the Forks Post Office.”
Melissa Rosenberg Says Bill Condon “Gets It”
September 11, 2010
Melissa Rosenberg just updated her Facebook with the following message:
“Hi Y’all! Sorry I haven’t checked in for a while. Been immersed in the world of Breaking Dawn. I’ve been working very closely with our director Bill Condon, whose input has been SO great. He understands story, structure and character as only a fellow writer can, but he also has fantastic visual ideas. And he’s not shying away from anything! Sex, birth, feathers, blood… it’s all in there. More later! xoxo Mel”

Twilight Series Theories: Fanjunket Friday: Volvos, Proposals, Teens, and Religion
September 10, 2010
Twilight Series Theories has another transcript and audio file up with their discussion with Stephenie Meyer. They entitled this week’s episode Volvos, Proposals, Teens, and Religion, but our favorite section is where Stephenie talks about stories left currently untold.
“LT: If you were forced to write a sequel or some novella, which—what character or characters would you do?
SM: If I were to go ahead with sequels, and I think that I’ve already stated this in some book thing, I would tell it from two narrators again, although I think I’d switch back and forth and it would be Nessie and Leah. And you know it’s funny because a lot of people are like—I’ve read a lot of theories about why I felt compelled to have Bella have a baby and there’s only one reason and it’s not because—there isn’t a lot of really negative stuff—it’s not because you know Bella needed to have a baby or anything, it’s because I knew—it was really clear because I’d already done “Forever Dawn”—once Bella becomes a vampire she loses her relatability. It’s subtle, but you no longer could do anything she could do and it really, as a narrator, she—I wanted to continue, I wanted to show where she went with it—but as a narrator she loses a lot of her appeal because she’s a vampire now and it’s really interesting to see how she does things but emotionally I felt like the tie was not as strong. I wanted my narrator for the next story. When I was writing this I was never gonna stop and I may go back to it, but like I said there’s the burnout factor that you don’t take into account and working on the movies, it’s a lot of vampires. But Nessie was created because she was the logical voice, you have someone who’s half-human, half-vampire who doesn’t fit in anywhere and is an outsider in some ways, but then loved and cherished by her family. But all the intricacies—she had so many problems, so many challenges so she was so attractive to me as a narrator…”
