The idea for Twilight came to her in a dream on the night of June 2, 2003. In the dream, she saw what eventually became Chapter 13 of Twilight. She started writing out the details of the dream, calling her two characters only “he†and “she†as they were unnamed. From that point on she wrote something every day until she was able to fill in the rest of the story. She started editing the book, writing several epilogues to the point where she realized she wasn’t ready to let the characters go and that there was more story to tell. She sent the book out to publishers and was eventually signed to Little, Brown and Company for a three book deal. From dream to deal, it took about six months for Twilight to become a reality. It was in stores a short eighteen months later.For more information on Stephenie Meyer and the conception of the book Twilight, visit www.stepheniemeyer.com The FanaticsAnyone involved in the making of the Twilight Movie!!!!
