♥ ♥ Stephenie Meyer♥

Some one i would really like to meet (Other than the Jonas Brothers) is Stephenie Meyer, the author of my favourite book. She seems like a really down to earth person, and i think her life story is interesting (well actually quite ordinary) for a the author of an international bestseller.
Candy and Stephen Meyer had Stephenie on Christmas eve, 1973. Stephenie was named after her father (that's why she has her unusual spelling) Even though she was born in Conneticut, Stephenie was raised in Arizona. She is one of 6 children. Stephenie has two older sisters, Heidi and Emily, and three brothers, Paul, Seth, and Jake. I think Stephenie had a fight with Heidi, because in the twilight series, she 'borrowed' her brothers names for the reliable werewolves, Emily's name for a beautiful character everyone is jealous of. Whereas Heidi's name is for the cruel vampire that resembles the ice queen. She got a National Merit Scholarship and used it to get into Brigham Young University in Utah, where she majored in English. Stephenie met her husband when she was 4 years old, but only fell in love with him when she met him again sixteen years later. Now they have three sons together, Gabe, Seth and Eli. Stephenie's favourite authors are: Orson Scott Card, Jane Austen, William Shakespeare, Maeve Binchy, Charlotte Bronte, Daphne DuMaurier, L.M. Montgomery, Louisa May Alcott, Eva Ibbotson, William Goldman, Douglas Adams, Janet Evanovich. I think Stephenie has a really cool and young sense in music. Her favourite bands are : My other favorite sources of inspiration are Muse, Linkin Park, My Chemical Romance, Coldplay, The All American Rejects, Travis, The Strokes, Brand New, U2, Kasabian, Jimmy Eat World, and Weezer. Stephenie listened all these bands while writing twilight, to influence. It took Stephenie 3 months to write Twilight, which is unbelievable. Stephenie had never read any vampire related books before writing twilight, but had a dream about a girl and a vampire in the forest, which is actually chapter 23 of twilight. Stephenie wrote twilight around that chapter. Now there are actually 4 books in the twilight saga, a series called the host, and the movie of twilight.
