Unsent Letters To Celebrities: Stephenie Meyer
current mood: sad
Dear Stephenie Meyer,
Let me first start off by showering you with compliments. You're an amazing writer. Your books have somehow worked their way into my heart and have become apart of me in a way i never thought a book (or a series of books) could. Your characters are almost like family to me. Thank you so much for bringing them into my life and everyone elses lives. I wish i could be half the writer you are someday.
I am simply outraged that someone close to you who had a copy of your Midnight Sun draft could do such a malicious thing as leak it out on the internet. They will have to live with the knowledge that they have upset the crazy large Twilighter community, and if it is ever found out who this person is, that person will be going through hell for a good long while, and should be glad the Volturi dont exist!
I was relieved that you had put your own revised version of what was leaked on your website, so that your fans (me) wouldn't have to support that monster, and could instead support you by viewing it there. When i finished all 264 pages, i started to cry. That was it. That was all i was going to get. You had put the book on hold indefinately, and that was all i was going to get of Edward Cullen, even Bella for a long long long time. I cried. That couldn't have been all...
So please, for the fans who adore you, for the people who are inspired by your stories, and for all who have done the right thing, please finish Midnight Sun. It is too good to remain unfinished. I know you are angry, and i know are not in the mindset to complete it, but please... just for us... finish what you have begun.
I feel like Edward Cullen not being able to read Bella's mind when i think about the fact that i will never be able to read the rest of Midnight Sun. I feel like Alice trying to see a future that is too murky to make out. I feel like Jasper having a hard time dealing with the fact that he wont be able to drink human blood again, and he must find the will to stick to his vegetarian diet (only i'm having a hard time dealing with the fact that this is all i will get to read of Edwards story... i must find the will to accept this and move on.) I feel like Bella... silk over glass... only the glass has shattered. This is it. This is the end.
Dont let this be the end... your most devoted fans love you, but are not ready to let go. Please, for them, for us, finish the book so we can let go.
Please?
Pretty Please?
With a cherry on top?
Your Fanpire,
Alisa Valley.

Four Letters in a row!!

Oh my gosh, I'm actually on LJ!!! Okay, now that you've recovered from fainting with surprise, let me apologize over and over and over again for being the worst LJ friend EVER. Seriously, I suck. I've been so stressed out with school- it's just all way too much work. I wake up at 6:00 a.m., get ready, get to school by 7:30, am with the kids until 3:00, am at school working on stuff until at least 4:30-5:00, when I get home I lesson plan for 1-2 hours, eat dinner, watch an hour or so of TV, and then sleep. I have no life. I'm really sorry I haven't been here in forever though. I promise it's not because I'm sick of you or of reading your entries- not that at all- it's just that I have entirely too much on my plate right now.
Okay, now that I'm done with my whole spiel about why I haven't been here in forever, let me tell you how incredibly SAD I am about this whole Midnight Sun ordeal. I haven't even gotten through the whole unedited draft yet, but I just can't believe we'll never be able to read the whole thing. I'm so mad at whatever stupid person decided it would be a good idea to leak it on the internet. :( Stupid people.
At least we still have the movie to look forward to. (I'm still very nervous they're going to ruin it for me, though.) And now we only have to wait until November 21st! Too bad it's at the expense of the Harry Potter movie, though. I know many people who are super upset about that.
OK, Totally random comment about Twilight. So, I'm at the high school for student teaching, as you know (as it has led to my incredibly annoying absence from all things communication). In all the high schools in Lincoln all students are required to wear their IDs on lanyards around their necks. Anyway, the point of this whole thing is that there is a whole group of kids who have the "I've been bitten by Breaking Dawn" pins on their lanyards. There's at least three in my classes. Every time I see one I want to be like, "Oh hey, I love Twilight too!" But then I think to myself, "Hmm, will they think it's weird that their teacher is a Twilight freak?" So I don't say anything. Anyway, that's a totally random and useless story, but I've been wanting to tell it to someone and you're my Twilight friend. :)
