Breaking Dawn

Tue Sep 2, 2008, 6:37 PM
You know, I don't see why you people are so harsh. An author's job is incredibly difficult on an emotional level. She started writing this story with only one person in mind - her. The fact that she chose to publish this and let complete strangers into her head takes a great amount of courage. So seriously, do you really think that she's being whiny about its premature release? I don't, I think I would feel the same way if someone posted naked photos of me. Because that's essentially what a "rough draft" is, it's vulnerable, it's naked, it's raw.

Now, I'm not saying that you can't critique the twilight saga. And I'm not saying that you can't say that you personally think it's childish, non-intellectual, etc. That's part of the territory of making it public, people read it and react to it. And not always favorably. But given some of the unrestrained attacks and ill-thought words regarding her work, it shouldn't come as a surprise if she's a little sensitive about all this.

Personally, I hope that she does rally and continues to work on Midnight Sun, despite this ill-timed leak. I also hope that whoever leaked Midnight Sun will make amends for the emotional pain inflicted, (bastard). A public lynching might suffice, j/k.

On another note I would just like to add that I really enjoyed Breaking Dawn. It wasn't what I expected - but I loved it none-the-less. Yes, Renesseme was a shock, and at first I wondered, ‘Oh God, what the hell are you thinking?’ But, it grew on me. It helped that Jacob took over the narration for a little bit. But the birthing scene. That was powerful and it was perfect. Breaking Dawn was not a bad book. It was a very good book, for one (but not the only) very important reason: It ended exactly the way it was supposed to. The way that Stephanie Meyer wanted. Not the way of popular vote.
