steph meyer speaks, breaking dawn and casting

posted by jpolanco

"In regards to the question, "Is Breaking Dawn the last book in the Twilight Saga?" The answer is, "I don’t know." It’s the last one for a while, at least. Of course there will be Midnight Sun, but that’s covering old material. I’m not sure if I will go forward with the Twilight characters–I’m a little burned out right now. Ask me again in two years."

"Breaking Dawn is in the editing phase. It it tentatively set for release Fall 2008. It could be later if we hit a snag in editing. Usually editing takes longer than a few months, but both I and my editors will be putting in lots of overtime to make this happen."

"I do not have any casting updates. I haven’t heard anything since the Robert Pattinson announcement. I’m waiting on the same pins and needles you all are. When I get home from vacation, I’ll see if I can get some news."

Eragon word count: 157720 pages: 509 Eldest word count: 213516 pages: 706 Brisingr word count: 254629 pages: 763 Don't get me wrong I love the Twilight books but their not very long at all. What it is is that there are less words per page.
