Just let me know when that new petition is ready to go. Ideally, I would love to have the whole series from the perspective of all the Cullens, Bella, and the Volturi. I think it would be totally fascinating, even though I bet SM would think we would get awfully bored with it! Haha - as if! It is a tribute to her that we are so fascinated with her characters that we could read about them endlessly Very Happy


ROTFL! Edwards_obsession, poor SM will be 110 years old and still writing Twilight from every possible character in the series, hahaha!

And don't forget Charlie - I think his POV could be interesting too. Edward said Charlie is happiest pretending to believe what Bella tells him - so it would be interesting to hear his thoughts as well. Right now Edward is the only one who knows for sure what Charlie believes and what he thinks is suspicious.

aprillove, I'm so glad you enjoyed it! I love the way SM writes as Edward - he just has such an overwhelming array of complex emotions. And yet he's still darkly humorous - (Paraphrasing) "Great advice Rosalie. Let me tell you about a pot and a kettle." Very Happy

Haha! Very Happy I can just see an old, gray haired SM sitting at the computer writing the 25th Twilight book and cussing all us crazy, obsessed fans who wont leave her alone. But the sad thing is that I really could read 25 Twilight books and still be interested in #26! Mr. Green

I'd voted equal to Twilight. What was I thinking? You ladies are absolutely right about Edward's point of view being more interesting. It would have to be better because, and I think this has already been mentioned, we will never be without Edward. He will always be there, not like in Twilight where, like Bella, we have to endure his absence.
Edward-- always with us! (big sigh...)

BTW, I'm for anything with Edward in it--prequels, NM, EC and BD in Edward's pov. Just that waiting for them will be like doing penance.

Yes, exactly InnamorataDiTwilight!! There will be no need to flip through the rest of a chapter to find out how many more pages to go until Edward is in a scene again! Squee!!! Very Happy

edwards_obsession, I don't think 25 books of Twilight is at all excessive either. After all, we're already on #4 and MS will be #5...what's another 20 books? SM should be able to write those up in a snap, right? Wink

I'll run her errands and make dinner - you take care of her kids. We'll get some of the other TM's to kidnap her husband so that he can't interfere, and then Stephenie will have unlimited writing time. Problem solved!

Well, we have been referred to as the Twilight Mob, so maybe we can put that idea to good use! I'm sure there are more than enough ladies willing to help SM in every aspect of her daily life so she can be free to write away Very Happy

Yeah, I think Borders in the UK was selling bound copies of the first chapter of MS. You can find them on Ebay for about $20 US.

I got one too. It is awesome but boy will it be nice to have to whole book! You're right about not having to flip through the pages of NM to get to Edward from his POV. I vote all the books from Edward's POV! MS will be the best of the series and I already know what is gonna happen!

I'm so very excited because I think that Edward's POV is going to be so much more interesting than Bella's. And I don't mean that in a negative way, simply that I think Edward's history and background are so much richer in detail. Can't wait to find out if I'm right!

oh, you're definitely right! Edward's pov will be so far beyond Bella's because he has so much more history then her. Plus, he is the most emotionally complex person I've ever known - that will surely translate into MS. I can't wait to see him as he really is, not just as Bella sees him.

I never dreamed I would be more anxious for MS than BD. Its dark, and complicated. What I expect from him. I want to see that conflict of control and violence transformed into release and love. Im so pumped for this. I am so up and high for BD, I can't imagine what it will feel like when MS finally comes out. It will be THE BEST!!! And so Dark, I love it. I adore the idea that Rob got to see and read what Steph had completed. Oh wow!

EDWARDS Birthday today!!!

He did?! Wow! I didn't realize Rob has read as much of MS as is written. Yet another reason to tackle him and hold him hostage...like I need another reason, ha! Very Happy
