Married to a Twilight Actor: What’s It Really Like?
May 25, 2010
The Alex Meraz fansite called The Meraz Effect had a chance to interview Alex’s wife (sorry ladies, but he’s very taken) about what their life is like.
“Kim is the lucky wife to the multitalented Alex Meraz, but those who are avid Alex-supporters, know that Kim is a strong and admirable person in her own right. During Alex and Kim’s first Australian convention, I had the chance to talk profession, family, marriage, Twilight and of course, Alex, with Kim.
During my interview with Kim, it became obvious that she is the back bone to Alex’s life, working behind-the-scenes in corporate finance, as well as giving truly dedicated wifely support. Kim laughs when I quote that behind every great man, is a great woman, “I love that saying,” she says as I explain how relevant that is for Alex and herself.
As professional as the couple are, Kim explains that they must balance the dynamics of work and private life. The couple rarely have a large break from Alex’s now-busy schedule, which makes them appreciate and utilize the precious time they get to spend together as a family. Together, with their 2 year old son, Somak, the Meraz family prefer a quiet time at home to doing anything else. Kim describes the treasured time they get to spend together bathing Somak and reading him a bedtime story. Kim chuckles and tells me that when Alex is around, he becomes the apple of Somak’s eye, and that she quickly turns into little more than chop liver.”

Contest for UK Twilight Fans
May 24, 2010
According to the Waterstone’s site:
“To celebrate the launch of Stephenie Meyer’s new Twilight saga novella, The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner, we want to find the nation’s most enthusiastic, fun fan to represent the Twilight generation when the first copies of the book arrive at Europe’s largest bookshop, Waterstone’s Piccadilly.
Twilight fans love to talk about the books, the characters, the romance, the mystery and everything else contained in the four books of the Twilight saga: Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn. But how would you sum up what’s contained in those hundreds of pages for someone who’s never read the books? In a minute. On camera.
We want to see you reduce the entire Twilight saga to just 60 seconds of inspired enthusiasm, passion and imagination. The rules are simple – simply film yourself explaining the entire Twilight saga in 60 seconds or less, post your film on YouTube – with the tagline “My Twilight in 60 secs” – and add the link to our Facebook page: facebook.com/waterstones, so we can judge the best.
Use your camera, your mobile phone, your camcorder – whatever you like.
We’ll choose one winner (UK only) to be our ‘spokesfan’ on Friday 4th June. The lucky winner will also be able to bring along up to 2 friends (plus a responsible adult if under 18), stay in a top London hotel, get loads of Twilight saga goodies, plus £500 spending money and have the first copies of The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner delivered to their hotel room door at the official publication time of 5.05am on Saturday 5th June.”
