The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner: An Eclipse Novella by Stephenie Meyer
Posted: May 21, 2010 |
]]>
“The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner” is a story described from the viewpoint of Bree Tanner, a character in Eclipse. The book will be released on June 5 and the first print order is that of 1.5 million copies. One dollar from each book sold will go to the American Red Cross International Response Fund which will then be routed to the relief efforts going into the Haiti and Chile.
It Started As A Fun Story
Stephenie Meyer herself is surprised from the publication of the story in the book form. She began to work on the idea in 2005, at the time when she was editing Eclipse. It was only intended to be a short story which would have been uploaded on her website. Later she thought it fit to add the story to the “The Twilight Saga: The Official Guide”, though the story kept growing longer and became 192 pages long.
Read It Online
The fans would be given exclusive access to the story on an exclusive website, www.breetanner.com, where they would be allowed to read the story online from June 7 to July 5, 2010. “The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner” has always been for the fans only, says Stephenie Meyer, as she expresses her gratitude for the fans for being so supportive of everything related to Twilight.
Story Of A Newborn Vampire
The book by Stephenie Meyer, “The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner” is a captivating story of a newborn vampire who lives in the darker side of the world. It will also be available as an e-book on June 5, 2010. Stephenie Meyer has already become a publishing sensation. She herself admits she had been working on the story off and on just for fun. Later as the story grew, the book “The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner” started to explain lots of things which Bella never knew of. The book was also used during the process of making Eclipse film. The screenwriter, director and cast of the film also read the story to get to know the characters better.
A Gift For The Fans
After the manuscript of the book was completed, she heard the news that the book had become almost 200 pages long after typesetting. The publishers came up with the idea of publishing the Bree story separately so that people would know more of Bree before they watched the movie. When Stephenie Meyer suggested the idea of gifting the story of Bree to the fans since they had already bought tons of books on the series, the publishers agreed, which gave birth to the idea of presenting the book online for a month.

Book Review: The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner by Stephenie Meyer
The title itself suggests the novella is related to Eclipse in some way. This is the story Bree Tanner, the newborn vampire who was killed in the war between the armies of Cullens and Victoria. The book follows the six days in the life of the newborn vampire Bree’s life.

Book Review of South of the Border, West of the Sun
Murakami´s novel lacks the fantastical elements that normally pervade his work. The novel explores seemingly more mundane topics such as a mid-life crisis and a love-triangle, and is the weaker for it. Although Murakami places a series of twists upon convention, and maintains the mystery evident in many of his books, the story can still be seen as stale.

iBoy by Kevin Brooks is much more than just a tale of grit or a new action hero (another thing common, the hero can’t reveal himself to the girl he loves).

Don’t Read Popular Books? You Can’t Avoid Jonathan Franzen
It doesn’t matter what kind of literature you are currently into, you will have to read The Corrections at the end of the day. May be you will do it out of your own choice, or because your friends just couldn’t stop raving about the characters in the book. Even those who are truly of the stubborn kind (those who don’t want to get into the popular literature because they have better things to do) will have to read it when the movie version is released. So what is their excuse?

Can You Be A Character In The Corrections by Jonathan Franzen?
While reading The Corrections, many readers felt glad they were not one of the characters, but could easily visualize themselves making the same mistakes they were making. In the conventional sense, The Corrections didn’t have a plot, but it did explain how the characters got where they were. Take Gary for example, who was sure in his heart he didn’t want to have a marriage like his father who dominated (or bullied) his wife. As a result, his wife started dominating the marriage.

This is the Way Jonathan Franzen Writes
Although Jonathan Franzen doesn’t know how the cruise chapters work, he is aware how the first two chapters and then fifth and sixth work. He just takes a single situation and then tightens the screws for all the characters (just like short novels). He is slightly apologetic about it, but Jonathan Franzen does create situations somewhat mechanically (for you it means there is a method behind the madness). He wants to figure out a powerful dramatic situation beforehand when he starts writing.

Stephenie Meyer – A Woman Who Created Vampires in Forks

]]>
They know very well who of them is human and who of them is vampire. However, when people are asked about Stephenie Meyer, they might just answer that she is the author of The Twilight Saga. They might not know a lot about her career and her achievements in writings. For that reason, this article gives you a brief biography of Stephenie Meyer, a woman who created vampires in Forks.
Stephenie Meyer was born in Hartford, Connecticut in 1973 but she was settled in Phoenix in her age of four with her family. She attended Chaparral High School in Scottsdale, Arizona. Then, she continued her study to Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah and received her B.A in English in 1997. She had never written a story before she wrote Twilight and even started to consider taking law school. However, the birth of Gabe, her oldest son changed her mind because she just wanted to be her mother.
Before she decided to be an author, she was working as a receptionist in a property company. However, her life then totally changed on 2003. She decided to write something, something that she had not done in a long time and that surprisingly bothered her. She began to think about the plot of the first book of The Twilight Saga Series.
It is quite interesting that she invented the idea of the plot during the day through swim lessons and potty training. Then, she wrote it into words and sentences in the late of the night when her house is pretty quiet, and amazingly she finished the first book, Twilight, in three months only. This book then reached its success in 2005.
Started from this year, she delivered the second book, New Moon, in September 2006 and the third book, Eclipse in 2007. In May 2008, she delivered her other novel, The Host, in the market and still in the list of bestseller more than a year after its debut. Then, the final book of the Twilight Saga was released at 12:01 midnight on August 2, 2008.
The Twilight Saga became more and more famous when Twilight the movie was released on November 21, 2008. It was directed by Catherine Hardwicke and starring Robert Pattinson as Edward Cullen and Kristen Stewart as Bella Swan. Then, New Moon was released on November 16, 2009 in USA, and Eclipse also will be released on June 30, 2010.
Although she could be considered as a new American author, Meyer has achieved a lot of awards. They are A Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year, An Amazon.com Best Book of the Decade…So Far, A Teen People Hot List pick, as well as An American Library Association Top Ten Best Book for Young Adults and Top Ten Books for Reluctant Readers.
Besides the Twilight Saga and The Host, there are still some works that you can find soon in the bookstores. They are Midnight Sun, The Soul, and The Seeker.

Here’s an excerpt from young writing phenomenon and bestseller Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight:
Jess drove faster than the chief, so we made it to Port Angeles by four. It had been a while since I’ve had a girls’ night out, and the estrogen rush was invigorating. We listened to whiny songs while Jessica jabbered on about the boys we hung out with. Jessica’s dinner with Mike had gone very well, and she was hoping that by Saturday night they would have progressed to the first-kiss stage. I smiled to myself, pleased. Angela was passively happy to be going to the dance, but not really interested in Eric. Jess tried to get her to confess who her type was, but I interrupted with a question about dresses after a bit, to spare her. Angela threw a grateful glance my way.[chapter 8, Twilight]
What is wrong with the above? It is quite inartistic. And as clumsy as running a marathon with new shoes. Truman Capote would call the above paragraph, “Typing,” not writing. The paragraph contains not one single balanced sentence, let alone a well balanced sentence. And, yes. All sentences are of the amateurish or childish pattern S-V-O (subject, verb, object–John hit the ball; john hit the ball; john hit the ball; etc).
Master writer Stephen King, in a recent interview said: “Both Rowling and Meyer, they’re speaking directly to young people… The real difference is that Jo Rowling is a terrific writer and Stephenie Meyer can’t write worth a darn. She’s not very good.”
At first impression Mr. King’s comments may sound as insensitive and perhaps as evidence of an old senior citizen writer being jealous of a young and popular one. At least this was the reaction of many of Stephenie Meyer’s fans: “King is jealous: no one buys his books anymore.” “Name one of King’s books that is popular today: none!” “He can’t see a young writer succeed.”
So I purchased several of Jo Rowling’s books of the Harry Potter series, and I was delightfully surprised. Rowling is a master writer; a master of grammar, syntax, and rhetoric. If you love the English language, you will find well balanced sentence, and cadence and rhythm, and echoes that could be the envy of any literary writer. Because she writes for children, her production isn’t considered literary by many critics, but eventually she will be, just a Mark Twain, C. S Lewis, Kipling, and Dickens.
Mr. King might just be right in his criticism of Stephenie Meyer, not because he is jealous of her success, but because–as we can see in the above excerpt–Meyer’s writing isn’t writing at all, but typing; maybe she’ll mature as a writer and learn the trade. Hopefully someone close to her might give her some sound advice that good writing comes with sentence variation.
Stephenie Meyer reminds me of another young writer who wrote one passable novel, Secret History, and then fell out of grace and was dropped by publishers like a hot brick. Same problem as Meyer: writing subject-verb-complement ad nauseum.
Though Stephen King has been writing for longer than 40 years, his prose hasn’t improved. And his themes are still horrific. But despite the fact that many scholars and critics view Mr. King as an entertainer and not a literary figure, I can say that he can put together some fine sentences. Will he ever be hailed as a master writer in the same league as Faulkner or Hemingway? I don’t think so.
And why not? Some may ask: simply because he himself at one point in his life decided to become an entertainer rather than a literary writer.

Studying the style of authors, reading 10 hours a days, imitating your favorite writers, or memorizing grammar rules and syntax patterns will not help you a great deal. A little yes-but not a lot.

Nothing can be more exciting to a reader than to get an eyeful of crisp monosyllabic text. Short, unpretentious words, with lots of active verbs will take the reader a long way. On the other hand, if you load your opening paragraph with adverbs -especially those ending in ‘ly’- you will lose your reader in less than 5 seconds.

Stephenie Meyer’s New Moon: the awaited release in big screen
Posted: Oct 02, 2009 |Comments: 0

]]>
The Twilight saga continues with the release of Stephenie Meyer’s second book, New Moon. It was originally published in hardcover in 2006. It rose to the #1 position on the New York Times Best Seller list for Children’s Chapter Books in its second week on the list, and remained in that spot for eleven weeks. It spent over 30 weeks in total on the list.
The fans of Twilight are very hungry for the New Moon’s film adaptation scheduled for release on November 20, 2009. The film will still include in the cast the stars of Twilight Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner, playing their roles as Bella Swan, Edward Cullen, and Jacob Black, respectively. The Summit Entertainment carried out the sequel in late November 2008. It is being directed by Chris Weitz with Melissa Rosenberg returning as the screenwriter. The majority of the film is being shot in Vancouver, British Columbia.
New Moon is the continuation of the complicated young-adult love story of a simple girl, Bella Swan and the vampire she loves, Edward Cullen. According the author, this next book is about losing true love. The title refers to the darkest phase of the lunar cycle, indicating that New Moon is about the darkest time of the protagonist Bella’s life.
The story starts on Bella’s 18th birthday. When Edward and his family throw her a birthday party. While unwrapping a gift, she gets a paper cut, which causes Edward’s adoptive brother, Jasper, to be overwhelmed by her blood’s scent and attempt to kill Bella. To protect her, Edward decides to end their relationship, and the Cullens move away from Forks. This leaves Bella heart-broken.
In the months that follow, Bella learns that thrill-seeking activities, such as motorcycle riding, allow her to “hear” Edward’s voice in her head. She also seeks comfort in her deepening friendship with Jacob Black, a cheerful companion who eases her pain over losing Edward. Bella discovers that Jacob is a werewolf. He and his fellow werewolves protect Bella from the vampires Laurent and Victoria, the latter of whom seeks revenge for her dead mate, James, whom the Cullens killed in Twilight.
Meanwhile, a series of miscommunications leads Edward to believe that Bella has killed herself. Distraught over her supposed suicide, Edward flees to Italy to provoke the Volturi, vampire royalty who are capable of killing him. Alice and Bella rush to Italy to save Edward, arriving just in time to stop him. Before leaving Italy, the Volturi tell Edward that Bella, a human who knows that vampires exist, must either be killed or transformed into a vampire. When they return to Forks, Edward teBack
lls Bella that he has always loved her and only left Forks to protect her. She forgives him, and the book ends with the Cullens voting in favor of Bella being transformed into a vampire after her graduation, to Edward’s dismay.
Indeed, with this very breathtaking plot, the author delivers another enticing mixture of passion and suspense with a supernatural twist. The romance, action and exciting twists and turns this movie is truly much awaited. The fans all over the world are thirsty to see this vampire love saga. This leave them starving for more.

Book Review: The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner by Stephenie Meyer
Posted: Jul 29, 2010 |
]]>
The title itself suggests the novella is related to Eclipse in some way. This is the story Bree Tanner, the newborn vampire who was killed in the war between the armies of Cullens and Victoria. The book follows the six days in the life of the newborn vampire Bree’s life.
Welcome Change Of Perspective
Even if you didn’t expect anything from the book, you would be pleasantly surprised by the enjoyment this off-chute story provides to the readers. The change in perspective is especially likeable, especially after you have read Eclipse. It’s a great feeling to be able to see in the mind of a vampire and what sort of blood lust they feel right after they are born. The description of killing and tasting human blood is also very interestingly told.
Well Developed Characters
Despite being a novella, the character of Bree Tanner is extremely well developed though you may end up feeling the ending of Eclipse could have been a bit different. People might wish to see Bree Tanner continue to live knowing well the rules and they might also like to see her as a part of the Cullen family. The other characters people enjoyed reading about include Diego, Fred, and Riley. There were tons of information covered in The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner and the insights provided into the minds of the vampires were priceless (for Twilight fans).
The Readers Are Enamored
The author doesn’t expect everyone to be besotted by the book, she is only targeting the teen girls and they are enamored. Other people who didn’t enjoy the book, still felt compelled to read them because they did not want to be left out (of current trends). After all, it was the best selling paranormal series of our times. The structure of the novel is different, and there is just a large chunk of text … no chapters, no breaks at all.
The Story Has a Steady Pace
The development and pacing of the story is steady throughout, and lack of structure to the book doesn’t hurt it at all. There is no drama or dramatic tension, but the development of the story fills all such apparent gaps. It is a readable book, and the interest in the events of the book would increase gradually. The fans would just adore the story and though the non-fans may find it a bit over the top. Bree worries about Diego just like Bella, and then comes slightly hasty vampire battle.

What will make your home page interesting? Good design plays an important part in your site’s overall effectiveness. But it’s not the flash that will interest your audience. It’s not the jingles that will connect with your visitor. It’s the benefits – the ‘what’s in it for me’ list that create interest and even desire.

Book Review: A Higher Court By John L. Betcher
Author John L. Betcher boldly places the existence of God on trial in his extraordinary new book A Higher Court: One Man’s Search for the Truth of God’s Existence. I can´t imagine anyone reading A Higher Court and not feeling moved to recommend it to a friend or family member.

The March of Mobile Money by Sam Pitroda and Mehul Desai
Money is what makes the world go round, right? Even those who don’t agree understand it is a vital part of our everyday existence. We can easily call it the most timely book which talks about how connectivity brought about by mobile phones can vastly improve the way we handle financial products and other transactions.

iBoy by Kevin Brooks is much more than just a tale of grit or a new action hero (another thing common, the hero can’t reveal himself to the girl he loves). To enjoy the book, however, you’ll have to excuse use of few sloppy words such as enervated or frequently occurring swearing throughout the book.

Don’t Read Popular Books? You Can’t Avoid Jonathan Franzen
It doesn’t matter what kind of literature you are currently into, you will have to read The Corrections at the end of the day. May be you will do it out of your own choice, or because your friends just couldn’t stop raving about the characters in the book. Even those who are truly of the stubborn kind (those who don’t want to get into the popular literature because they have better things to do) will have to read it when the movie version is released. So what is their excuse?

Can You Be A Character In The Corrections by Jonathan Franzen?
While reading The Corrections, many readers felt glad they were not one of the characters, but could easily visualize themselves making the same mistakes they were making. In the conventional sense, The Corrections didn’t have a plot, but it did explain how the characters got where they were. Take Gary for example, who was sure in his heart he didn’t want to have a marriage like his father who dominated (or bullied) his wife. As a result, his wife started dominating the marriage.

This is the Way Jonathan Franzen Writes
Although Jonathan Franzen doesn’t know how the cruise chapters work, he is aware how the first two chapters and then fifth and sixth work. He just takes a single situation and then tightens the screws for all the characters (just like short novels). He is slightly apologetic about it, but Jonathan Franzen does create situations somewhat mechanically (for you it means there is a method behind the madness). He wants to figure out a powerful dramatic situation beforehand when he starts writing.
