Author of the best selling "Twilight" series, Stephenie Meyer has announced that she is putting the next installment "Midnight Sun" on hold after a part of the book was published online.
Stephanie Meyer, 34, who lives in Arizona is the author of the "Twilight" and its sequels "New Moon," "Eclipse" and "Breaking Dawn which were the best sellers among Teenagers.The novel tells the love story of a School girl named Bella and her vampire lover, Edward. Over eight million books in the 'twilight' series have been sold Worldwide so far. She is often dubbed as the next J.K. Rowling by the media.
She said on her website that the person behind the leak was her close acquaintance. She has published the entire unfinished Novel in the website so that fans choosing not to read the illegally reproduced version do not “feel they have to make a sacrifice to stay honest”.
She wrote in her
blog.
The manuscript that was illegally distributed on the Internet was given to trusted individuals for a good purpose. I have no comment beyond that, as I believe that there was no malicious intent with the initial distribution. I feel too sad about what has happened to continue working on Midnight Sun, and so it is on hold indefinitely.
A movie version of the book Twilight is due later this year.
