NOTE: This interview is written as if Bella is still human. Think after Eclipse but before Breaking Dawn. And I don't mean to offend Twilight fans with any of the questions that Rita asks Bella in this article, based on Rita's personality in the books, I'm assuming she'd ask awkward questions.

Me Myself and I
By Rita Skeeter

Today's interview is with popular fantasy book character, Bella Swan. Captivating readers in Twilight, read on as I interview Bella, and see if there's more to her than just an obsession with Edward!

*The door opens, and in walks Bella......with Edward.*

Bella Swan: Can Edward please come?

Rita Skeeter: Sorry, *huge grin*....NO!

BS: *whines* Pleeeeease?

RS: *I flash my famous "no-way-but I'll-still-pretend-to-be-nice" grin and shake my head*

*Edward mutters something in Bella's ear, and Bella nods and smiles as she sits down in my chair. I shake my head....I can tell when somethings up. I wave my wand, and with a flash of purple light, I hear a loud, "OUCH!", and the sound of something being thrown backwards. There is a loud smashing sound, and a large, Edward-shaped hole appears in the door, and then there is a thud from outside. Bella rises out of her chair..*

BS: Holy crow! What did you do? Edward! Are you all right?

RS: *Waves wand, and the door slams shut* I wanted YOU, Bella, now please, SIT DOWN! *I smile winningly and push her back into her chair* Edward will be fine...... I think. That's the first time I've ever used the Vampire-banishing spell.....the Ministry's just modified it for sparkly vampires like your Edward. *I mutter a quick spell to fix the door and make it so Edward can't sneak in again*

BS: *Eyes widen* What?!

RS: Moving on.....can I can you Bella, or do you prefer Isabella?

BS: *Uneasily, and twisting in her chair to look back at the door* Uh... yeah, Bella's fine...

RS: Lovely. Now do you mind if I use a quick-quotes quill?

BS: *Confused* What's that?

RS: Wonderful! Now let's begin. So, tell me about yourself. I want to know you, the REAL you. And of course, so do my readers! *wink*

BS: Well....um....I'm from Forks.....and I love Edward.....we're going to get married.

RS: Of course we all know that, darling....anything else? Like what do you like to do....any hobbies? Friends?

BS: Well...doing things with Edward, I guess. I'm up for anything as long as he's with me.

*Quill scratches, and I nod. Of course most victims.....er, I mean Interviewees are reluctant at first*

RS: And how does it feel to have two incredibly gorgeous guys after you?

BS: Edward and Jacob? Well actually, it's pretty annoying, I mean Jake's a good friend, but he just doesn't get it, I mean, I'm with Edward, okay?

RS: Hmmmm, okay. Not to be rude, but doesn't that seem a bit ungrateful? You know that a lot of girls out there would love to be you right now!

BS: Look, Edward and I are in love, okay? Jake should just accept that and move on! *She rises half out of her chair defiantly*

RS: No need to get excited, I'm just asking...

BS: *Sits back down*

RS: Now, what do you say to the fact that to most peoples definitions, Edward is technically dead? And have you always had issues with necrophilia or is this a relatively new issue?

BS: What? And hey...Edward ISN'T DEAD!

RS: Of course he isn't, darling. *wink* Now,

BS: True love knows no bounds!

RS: Yes, all right...moving on, do you think of yourself as a good role model for teen muggles-er, I mean GIRLS?

BS: Well, everyone-*Bella leans over and looks at my writing pad* Hey! Edward ISN'T DEAD! And my name isn't Mary Sue...it's Bella....and what's that about "severely lacking a personality"?!?!

RS: Never mind the quill, dear. Now-

BS: *Interrupting* You'd better not be planning on publishing that! Edward won't let you!

RS: *Muttering* Like I'm really afraid of a sparkly fairy and a Mary Sue-

BS: WHAT?! I'm not Mary Sue, and EDWARD ISN'T A FAIRY!

RS: Er...I mean Vampires....I'm not afraid of VAMPIRES, *smirk and wink* Now, moving on, how do you feel Stephenie Meyer has portrayed you and the fairy....I mean, EDWARD in the Twilight series? Do you feel she's done you and your necrophilia issues-I mean, ROMANCE justice?

BS: Well, I didn't get the title, I mean, what does the time of day have to do with me and Edward? And I don't even like apples!

RS: *Raises eyebrows* O-kay...

BS: And like, seriously, what do tulips, ribbons and chess pieces have to do with love? And the titles, I mean, I don't know anything about astronomy.....and we're in love. They should have been called something more like, "Bella and Edward", or, "Forbidden Love", or something like that.

RS: Okay, so now-

BS: *Interrupting* And they didn't do Edward justice either. He's just so beautiful, his skin is so pale,he's godlike in every way. I mean, I can't believe he chose me, we're so in love. And he's just so romantic, I mean, he watches me when I sleep!

RS: *Gags* Are you aware that what you classify as romantic, most others would classify as creepy or stalker-ish?

BS: What's creepy or stalker-ish about Edward sneaking into my house and watching me sleep or following me around? It's so sweet, he cares about me so much!

RS: *Eyeroll*

BS: What? Just because YOU'VE never had a boyfriend......

RS: Excuse me, darling?

BS: Nothing *glare* Anyways, Edward is just so perfect, I mean-

RS: *Covers ears and looks sick* Please, stop.....I get it, dear!

BS: I mean, the way he sparkles is just so-

RS: I get it, please, stop! *Tries to cover ears*

BS: -Adorable, and he's so kind and romantic, and he's just so gorgeously perfect-

RS: *Turning green* I can't take it anymore! *Gets up and runs for the door*

BS: *Doesn't notice, and keeps talking about Edward* He's just so incredible in every way, and he's smart-

*As I was running for my life, trying to avoid dying of boredom and/or going insane from Bella's inane Edward rant, I was forced to conclude my highly informative interview with Bella Swan*

I got Breaking Dawn on the day that it came out and was hoping that Meyer would somehow redeem the steadily deteriorating quality of the Twilight series. What a huge disappointment. I was even more disappointed when I found out how Meyer was responding to the criticism towards it. Then I discovered that she was writing Midnight Sun. I looked forward to that because, even though all of the books suck, they are a guilty pleasure and Twilight was the best of all of them. Then she stopped writing...

Dear friends,
This is my first attempt at writing a creative article. I've attempted the facebook page of HP, and hope you like it. Sorry for the lame humor, it's my very first time. Thanks for reading, and please drop in your comments, because I need your opinion. Thanks again.

Now to anyone of the teensy-beensy minority that has never heard of Twilight's male protagonist, Edward Cullen, he supposedly a vampire that falls in deep "love" with a human girl named Bella.

Now I must object to this description of the Edward and Bella (Edella or Bedward, lol). While the relationship is described as being true love, I personally think that the relationship is any BUT deep, true love. It is, in my, along with many other fanpoppers, opinion that this relationship is extraordinarily unhealthy and codependent, and that Edward's supposed "love" is obsessive love.

Obsessive love:...

Today, I read a post from "youknowit101" on "1000 Reason why Twilight is better than harry Potter", and it completley gave me second thoughts about this whole thing between the rival series. According to this guy, he is very ashamed at the HP fans for attacking the Twilight fans and how immature they are, and to be honest, I now couldn't agree more. He's right, HP fans, we are the immature ones, not the Twilighters. We Potterheads are taking HP for granted and using it to rub it in other people's faces.

Now I see why Twilight fans barley respond to the debates and articles, and it's because...

Ah, yes, Stephenie Meyer, author of the Twilight series. My opinion of her, from the way that she has presented herself to the public in interviews and such, is that she is a whiny, self absorbed woman with the mind of a 13 year old. She can't deal with criticism because it hurts her delicate little feelings, and believes that she is an amazing writer and that her story and characters are somehow superior to those seen in the works of people such as Jane Austen and William Shakespeare. Here's one statement that shows that...

Okay, so a lot of people have been asking that I put more debate stuff and reasons why I think Twilight is better. Now that we're all friends and don't hate eachother anymore, I hope we can all have a reasonable debate.

But before I start, I want to say that I don't compleatley hate Harry Potter anymore. I saw the Deathly Hallows today, my friend is somewhat of a fan, and wanted to see it. I reluctaintly went with her, and it actually wasn't that bad. You see, I read the first-fourth Harry Potter books, and read most of the seventh. The Deathly Hallows movie was much better than the book in...

Hello everyone!

I'm planning on writing a letter to Stephenie Meyer regarding the Twilight series. I wanted to address all the points many people do not like in the series. The letter is going to be friendly and straight-forward. I wanted to hear what everyone would want me to include. These are a few of the topics I am going to be including:

- Anti-feminism
- Abusive relationship
- Unhealthy obsession
- Lust does not equal love
- Bella is horribly rude to her friends (not valued friendships)

These are just a few. Please add anything and if there is something specific you'd like me to add.

I'll be working on this letter and posting on Sunday on Fanpop, so I can add anything else and have your approval and then I will send it to her.
I understand that Seth probably won't let it get to her, but it's worth a shot and I will post his reply (assuming he does reply.)

Thank you! :)

I wrote this a while ago for my English class. We had to write about something we felt strongly about, and I feel very strongly about this, so...

Many people think that I would be an avid Twilight lover and a hater of the Harry Potter books after their first impression. What they see may seem to point to that: I’m a fifteen year old girl who devours books, is a self-proclaimed hopeless romantic, loves all things vampire related, and I wear a ton of black. In reality, this couldn’t be far from the truth. It is actually the complete opposite. I absolutely despise anything Twilight related...

A/N: I just thought it would be an interesting subject, you know? And before you do anything, just to let you know, I FAIL at characterisation. So don't go all batshit on me if I get Hermione or anyone else wrong, 'kay?

Today, on the 17th of October, the court session for the famous "Meyer Case" was initiated. Stephenie Meyer, founder of Twilight, inc., the billion-dollar advertising company, was arrested on several charges, including: allegations of fraud charged by worldwide companies Feminism, inc., 3D pwns 2D, and Literature n Books; the murder of various brain cells; abuse and rape of thesarus,...

There once was this girl named Bri, who had a best friend (for this article, we'll call her Z). Bri and Z had identical taste in books. So, when Z gave Bri Twilight for Christmas and told her how “great” it was and kept going on and on. She tried to convince Bri that it was better than Harry Potter (the book Bri had been obsessed with since she was nine) but Bri didn't believe that at all. Still, if Z liked it, then Bri knew she would like it. She had no hesitation when she cracked the binding. She was hooked.

Now, this was before Twilight grew to be psychotically massive, so when Bri came...

Before you start reading, I'd like to say this is my personal opinion. Maybe I'm wrong. If I am, I'd appreciate you don't get mad because I don't like fighting. It wasn't meant to be rude, mean or hurtfull to anybody.

For me Twilight was too easy to read. I could predict what would happen and the plot was too easy. The thing is, the plot isn't bad. Vampires exist, that's cool. You know one, yes, very cool. But the way Stephenie Meyer introduces it, how she developed her characters, how she modeled the vampire species, that is where Twilight gets people annoyed. It represent the iceburg that...

It's pretty obvious from just my username that I am a 'Twilighter',but I will try not to be biast in this article. So, lets compare the two...

Which made more money?

♥ The movie 'Twilight' made $69,637,740 in the USA and £2,508,422 in the UK, in its opening weekend. 'Harry Potter and the sorcerers stone/philosphers stone' made $90,294,621 in the USA and £16,335,627 in the UK, in its opening weekend.

♥ 'New Moon' in its opening weekend made $142,839,137 in the USA and £11,683,158 in the UK, whereas 'Harry Potter and the Chamber of secrets' made $88,357,488 in the USA and £18,871,829 in...

I have researched the following and well, I am not really surprised about the results. But I still ask some questions.

Why is Twilight more "popular" when HP sold more than 400 million while Twilight only sold 53 million? Also, Twilight is just 45% in the tomato meter while HP is 83% in the tomato meter? Third, Twilight sold about $191,449,475 while HP sold about $283,879,025? Another is Twilight is never shown in Kid's almanacs (the World and Time yearly almanacs) while HP is seen may times over. Twilight fans, don't you see, HP is better even of you turn the world upside down or inside out!...
