Stephenie Updates

 Stephenie records a small snippet about the upcoming release of Breaking Dawn for Barnes and Noble.

 

Posted with permission from Stephenie’s MySpace:

This is just so you can get a feel for what my last year was like (not to mention writing a 186,000+ word book). Also, so people who say, "You’ve never been to _____!" can see if they’re right.

 

Our Map of States Stephenie has visited:

Also included in this extensive list of visits are:

Canada *
England *
Germany *
Ireland *
Italy
Spain

* Denotes visited this year.

Also, since we have had several emails concerning this. We do not have any insider information on the finer points of ticket ordering.  The process was pretty clear on the last two signing tours, so I’m sure the instructions will be just as good for this tour when they have all the details ironed out and are ready to release them. We’re standing by waiting to order along with the rest of you.

  4. Cara C. says:

    I’ve always been bad at US map…but i know she hasnt been to….Mississippi..YES!

  5. person says:

    Why cant she come back to Utah

  6. hopeful says:

    I heard niagra falls NY is a nice place to visit this time of year.. *cough*

    but i know she can’t visit every place in the world

    i was just saying.. it would be nice. *sigh*

  7. Dazzled says:

    Thanks Stephenie, your the best
    Hope I see you in NY!

  8. MissmyEdward says:

    She’s so modest, really! It seems like she really doesn’t want to have overwhelming attention about herself. She certainly seemed to have trouble thinking up some reason people love her characters.

  9. Emily says:

    *cries* I love you Steph. You’ve been everywhere for us! It just happens be my luck that out of the few states you havent been, its mine. *sobs* All the tour dates are atleast 2000 miles away…*sniffles* Sorry. I’ve got a grip now!

  10. Caleb says:

    Okay, what year was she in Kentucky (you know, just so I can go and beat myself up for missing it)?

    She came to Kentucky for a Twilight signing tour, first year.  I missed it by 6 months.  :D ~Cocoa

  11. Janina says:

    AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! When did she visit CT?????! :O

  12. Tina says:

    Last September she came to my town, but then my sister had to ruin it and have a ton of homework… So we couldn’t go… we probably couldn’t have gone anyway because of my younger sister’s birthday *sigh* it was not meant to be. :(

  13. Jen Keli says:

    She should come to Las Vegas, Nevada.
    She has LOT of fans here.
    [=

  14. Angelica says:

    Ah, I had all this planned out in my head about heading up to NYC with some family, but my parents, bluntly said [b]no[/b].

  15. Maggie says:

    Ha, i knew it! She never visited North Carolina! But she visited south carolina. i wonder when she did that. I cant beleive i missed it! it still would have been like a 3 hour drive though.

  16. Bee says:

    Yay! I was there when she visited Toronto!
    I’m so glad I went. Plus, she told me she loved the Eclipse shirt I made. =D
    I forced my father to drive five hours to bring me to the signing. I’m so evil. =K

  17. Melissa says:

    she visited Toronto???
    nooooo when was this???
    y couldnt it have been now, when im a twilight fan…
    she visited a lot of nice places tho… :)

  18. We love you Stephenie, and are glad you’ve had a crazy year visitng everywhere! :)

  19. LaurA says:

    Wait, she’s not sure if she has the strength yet to revist the Cullen universe??? What does that mean…
    doest that mean its possible Edward dies????

  20. Juliette says:

    she needs to come to france. :’(

  21. Issy says:

    I’m going to see her in Chicago. :D

  22. Helen says:

    WHAT??? she visited Canada??? and I didnt hear about it?!?!? I knew I should have read the books earlier!!!! WHERE IS THE JUSTICE IN THIS WORLD,
    by the way, I think when she says shes not sure if she has the strength to return to the cullen universe, she actually means that after writing four books centering around their lives, it may be quite exhausting to write even more…
    besides, Edward wont be dying or else she woudnt have said she was happy and satisfied with the way the book ends…i mean, if it ends with bella heartbroken, how could that be satisfying? Unless they died together at the end, cause that would be really cool! not that I dont ADORE bella and edward, but i think it would be an amazing and incredibally original ending and yes, it most likely would be satisfying. maybe she ends up with jacob…:)
    anywho…love you awesome twilighters! (myself included ;)

  23. Saiyachick says:

    She has a family she has to think of…I commend SM on putting herself through exhaustion to satisfy others.

    On another note x_x I hope Midnight Sun doesn’t come out in a couple of years…that is insanity. Hehehe. Ah well.

  24. Aunie says:

    Stephenie Meyer came to Toronto on November 2nd, 2007 at Bay + Bloor Street’s Indigo! She signed all of more than 600 people’s books (multiply that by 3…), it was insane. All of the people were squished into the aisles of the bookcases. It was amazing though! Oh forgot to add that one THOUSAND and more were waiting outside just to get inside (overheard Indigo’s employee)…I don’t think they got in. It’s good to come way early, my friend and I were in the 100′s. It pays off to have read the book in 2006, when not many people knew about it! :D

  25. Aunie says:

    Note: know the date off by heart because…I have no life. XD

  26. almost a bella says:

    she needs to visit Louisiana! I would so go!

  27. Mary Alice Cullen says:

    she’s been in Gerogia? OMG i should have gone!!! i didn’t go!
    :( so not fair i didn’t know.

  28. TwilightT says:

    Stephenie, you are Superwoman! Thanks for reaching out to us. How fun, but exhausting! :) Enjoy your family and your writing!

    *My son had sent a friend to have my copy of The Host personalized during Stephenie’s Denver tour. They were in the 600-700′s and said that Stephenie was so friendly and took time to converse while signing. It was well worth their trip.

  29. Cassandra says:

    Never been to Nebraska. lol.

    Thats arite tho. Cuz Chicago here i come!

  30. Chelsea says:

    She hasn’t been to MI yet. :(

    It’s alright tho because I’m definitely going to go to the Aug.5th signing in Chicago. :) Since she’s a busy woman I understand. MI isn’t all that exciting as other places.

  31. dark romance says:

    Did she just say in that clip that we would have to tie up some loose ends by ourselves? aw, crap. Now I’m nervous.

  32. Bridget says:

    I’m itching to know what the second book that inspired Breaking Dawn…I thought of one that was a possibility, but I cant think of it now! Argh!

  33. Crystal says:

    ahhh i dont like loose ends :(

  34. Mary Alice Cullen says:

    What did she mean by loose ends?

  35. travelsized says:

    NO..she said the book was longer and took longer to write because SHE has to tie up all the loose ends..so no worries!

  36. Crystal says:

    oooooooooooo good :)

  37. Mary Alice Cullen says:

    I can’t believe it the last in Bella’s perspective. well it couldn’t last. I hope the ending is not a heart breaker if not i will cry. :(

  38. Tsuki says:

    Why are North Dakota and South Dakota one state?

  39. twilightluver345 says:

    I really liked the video! I am happy w/ what she said bout Breaking Dawn! That’s all I wanted to hear!

  40. alex says:

    when did she come to Florida?!?!?!
    goddammit!! I probably didnt even know about twilight when she came here!!!

  41. Marlow says:

    ahh i have this horrible feeling that the ending will be like a tuck everlasting thing where bella chooses a mortal life over staying with edward forever!! that would be horrible and not sastisfying at all… i will be so mad if she doesn’t become a vampire, but after watching this video i just get the feeling that she wont. did anyone else feel that way or is it just me?

  42. angela! says:

    she never came to Louisiana!!!!
    she has tons and tons of fans here!
    she should comeeeeeee.
    :(

  43. Michelle says:

    She still needs to come to North Carolina!!!! SHE HAS SO MANY FANS HERE. STEPHENIE COME WHEN YOU CAN. WE LOVE YOU!

  44. Teresa says:

    if only she would visit vancouver!
    that would be the craziest thing ever!!
    :)

  45. CastMeNotAway says:

    Awww… Mainers get no love up here in the middle of nowhere :P Maybe someday! (Although I did get to go to a signing in Mass last year…)

    Mrs. Meyer is very well-traveled :P … But I still think she should come up to Maine… it’s very pretty here, Stephenie!!

  46. AManda says:

    :D I almost fell out of my chair laughing at the fact that North Dakota and South Dakota aren’t separate on this map. :D I think SM should stop in Minneapolis again for BD because Chicago is so far away…

    I have to say I laughed at that too. I’ve done these maps a couple of times and that’s the first time that ever happened.  ~Pel

    I checked it, its the shrinking of the image, not the map itself.  If you copy the URL and look at it in full there is a line.  For some reason it just got lost in the shrinking.  ~Cocoa

  47. Tsuki says:

    Stephenie should come to ND, she has a huge (for the size of our population..lol) fan base here….

  48. Chela says:

    OME. I CANNOT WAIT ANYmore. It NEEDS to be August NOW!!!!! The suspense is KILLING me!!!!!!!! Her little interview just makes it even more impossible. Gah!!! Mid-Summer Night’s Dream and a mystery inspiration?!?!?!? I repeat, it NEEDS to be AUGUST!!!!!

    MARLOW: My friend said I should watch Tuck Everlasting and see if I thought it related to Twilight. I just wanted to tell you :) I haven’t seen it yet. Is it sad???? Anyone who’s seen it can answer that.

  49. Jessica says:

    I think Tuck Everlasting is very sad. I hope that the ending isn’t Edward & Bella’s ending. :(

    She needs to come to the south and visit her fans in Alabama lol.

  50. Krystina says:

    Well, all I have to say is power to Stephenie for visiting Kentucky. I live there, and so far, see no appeal whatsoever (well, except maybe the Kentucky Derby).
