Lots of news today

First of all thank to Lexicon user Alice who posted a heads up that you can now pre-order Eclipse and The Prom Nights From Hell from Amazon Canadian. The Prom Nights From Hell currently only has Meg Cabbot’s name attached to it, but devoted Stephenie fans have known for months that Stephenie is one of the authors who wrote a story in this book coordinated by Meg Cabbot. I’m also slightly amused in that Amazon Canada thinks Stephenie has written another book called "Fascination".  When you look carefully, it’s just the softcover edition of Twilight. (Edited: Stephenie has pointed out below that it is the French version..makes sense in Canada)

I’m sure the above will shortly be available from the USA version of that site. According to Stephenie (she updated her website today which will bring me to the next part momentarily), Eclispe will be available in August 2007.  Keep in mind folks that we don’t have an official date and that this info might change slightly over the next few months. Suffice to say, when we know details, you’ll know details.

Stephenie has put up some new covers for non-USA versions of Twilgiht and New Moon. Does anyone else think it looks like Bella made a pitstop at the Tuesday Addams house of fashion on the UK covers?

Next, Stephenie added a new New Moon outtake (you need Adobe Acrobat to read the PDF file) from Rosalie’s point of view. For reasons that are utterly obvious when you read the preface I am deeply humbled, stunned, thrilled ( I’m running out of adjectives) that Twilight Fanfiction and Fanart was able to inspire Stephenie to write from an alternate point of view.

Lastly, it seems that Stephenie will be quite busy in the near future:

"… I’ll be mostly MIA for the next half year or so—I need to write a 600+ page book by June, while editing a 800+ page book by April. A mental breakdown is a definite possibility…"

I believe that the 600 page book is Breaking Dawn, the title for book four (still stunned that I suggested that title a couple of months back and it is now the title), and that the 800+ page book is her sci-fi novel The Host.

And last but not least, Stephenie updated her calendar. Aside from some local Arizona signings, and a prestation at her alma mater, BYU, Stephenie will be hosting an event in Phoenix called "The Eclipse Prom". If you are wondering what in the heck The Eclipse Prom is, I direct you to Stephenie’s MySpace.

Excuse me while I toddle off now, I’ve been uber Stephenied

    Wow. That’s a lot of stuff. She’s going to be really busy.

    I really hope she comes to New York soon, though.

  2. Stephenie says:

    “Fascination” is the French translation of Twilight. Makes sense that they would be selling it in Canada. You can get “Crepusculo” (the Spanish translation) on regular ol’ American Amazon now. Pretty cool.

    I absolutely LOVED the Rosalie PoV from New Moon.. finally we got to see some of her mind as well…! and I’m so excited about the pre-ordering for Eclipse!! I’ll do that the second it comes up on Amazon USA…! Stephenie Meyer is just the best! =D

  4. Freesia says:

    Woot, Canada’s on the ball :) . Heehee, I think I shall order Fascination. Edward speaking french? YES PLEASE!

  5. Rachel09 says:

    I borrowed Twilight from my English friend, so of course it had the English cover, and I hated the cover. Someone even saw me reading it at school and asked me if Bella was DEFORMED!! Wow, I got mad at that poor person, I should have taken it out on the publishers but…LOL

  6. Kaiwynn says:

    I really would like to know more about this Eclipse Prom. I followed the link you gave me, and the only mention of the prom was on her blog. Unfortunately, her blog is set to friends only. Do you think you could ask Stephenie for permission to copy the information, maybe? I’d just really like to know, but I don’t want to have to resort to getting a Myspace.

    That, and, I’m really glad Eclipse is coming out earlier than I expected!

  7. Kerry Cogan says:

    I am sooo happy that Stephenie finally updated her website! I hope she does find some time to update before the next six months, but of course, I think we all understand that her work is priority, and the faster she works, hopefully, the sooner the books come out!

  8. Alice says:

    Wow, I feel special having my news on the front page of the Lexicon… lol

    I want the French version of Twilight, too. (Haha, Libby)

  9. Sydney says:

    EDWARD SPEAKING FRENCH IS LIKE HAVING A CLONE OF EDWARD IN PERSON(Which I kinda do)THOUSE MEANING HEVAN
    ON EARTH!!!

  10. Julia says:

    Like Kaiwynn said I would like to know more about the Eclipse Prom too. I don’t have a Myspace and I can’t view the article about it. Please post it here!

  11. Jasmine says:

    When I went to the link that you said you could preorder Eclipse, it only showed New Moon in paperback. I really want to preorder it, and now i dont know how…

  12. Taxi says:

    I absolutely LOVED the Rosalie PoV bit that Stephenie wrote.

    And I do think that Bella looks a bit odd on the UK cover of New Moon…

  13. Hellish Red Devil says:

    Bella always looks odd on the U.K. covers…but I digress.

    I absolutely adored being in Rosalie’s head for a little bit; I have such the soft spot for her. It was truly delighftul, not to mention enlightening. I feel as if I’m only beginning to understand Miss Thang, and it’s all sorts of fun for the budding psychologist in me. :D

  14. Seraphyn says:

    Hahaha! Awww! Pel was Stephenied! I that would happen!

    And can I just say, YAY E.PROM!!!!! :D

  15. Seraphyn says:

    … I have no idea what happened to my comment… It got spliced! >.

  16. Dalia says:

    If you’re pretty good in French, you should read Fascination. Trying to be at the place of someone speaking english, you’ll maybe find some parts difficult to understand, but it’s a very interesting thing to see how the translation was made. And you will have something to read while waiting for Eclipse.

  17. Minny says:

    I was woundering if anyone knows when New Moon will be released in Australia. All we know is next year. When next year!!??
    The Australian one will probably have the UK cover because Twilight is in the UK cover in Australia.

  18. Loren Rose says:

    Eclipse prom? what is this? is it really going to be a prom?! seeing all the pics of nashiville makes me so sad that I couldn’t go!! it looks like everyone had so much fun.

  19. Sara says:

    It’s not just Crepúsculo, it’s Crepúsculo: un amor peligroso.. haha… “Twilight: A Dangerous Love”… which I totally want. I found the first chapter on the internet… http://www.elpelao.com/letras/3287.html … HAVE FUN!

    And I LOVED having an official Rosalie POV! It was soooo interesting! And fabulous, of course! :)

    OH MY GOSH! You don’t have New Moon in Australia yet??? WOW. Umm… That REALLY REALLY sucks! Can you not get the American version online? Try http://www.addall.com (you can find sellers who might ship to Australia…)… might cost you an arm and a leg in shipping, but… SPLURGE! Buy yourself a Christmas present! SERIOUSLY!

    And Eclipse Prom? There’s more info on the message boards! Check there! Phoenix. Early May. Prom. Be there or be square! j/k… :)

  20. Minny says:

    Thanks Sara,
    Well I found out my local Library ordered it and I’ve put it on hold. I should be reading it within 2 weeks.
    Still I’m going to buy it soon!!

  21. Kait says:

    I can’t see the Eclipse link to pre order either. It just brings me to New Moon in paper back…I really want to preorder it. I’m so excited for Eclipse Prom(formerly Emmett prom).

  22. xxElekaNamenxx says:

  23. Becca_Twilightlover says:

    I’m new here and i was wondering about the link to pre-order Eclipse too… Hi, bye the way… I’m Becca:)(rebecca) Thanks

  24. amandaroo says:

    I know this is totally off topic but I really can’t help my self. Its regaurding the supposive movie of Twilight. Well. I have honestly been thinking very hard about who I think would pull off some of the characters in the movie. I’ve only come up with who should play Alice and Bella. This is only my opinion but when I thought about it they both screamed out the characters to me. I think Alice should be played by Kate Beckinsale. Kate Beckinsale with short hair would make an astonding Alice. It just screamed Alice’s name when I saw a picture of her. For Bella it was a little harder to think of the perfect person for her. Stephenies made a lot of qualities shine through in the books about Bella. So to find some who fit her discription would be hard but through a lot of thinking I came up with Emmy Rossum. To me she is everything Bella would be if she were to be protrayed by a actor. I don’t know why but I had to get that off my chest and let you know. Again its only my opinion. I hope you take this into consideration.
