Stephenie Meyer is red hot…
Stephenie Meyer has sold over 85 million books. Is there any other American author putting up these kind of numbers? I don’t think so. Those are JK Rowling type numbers.
This weekend “The Twilight Saga: New Moon,” the latest film based on Meyer’s “Twilight” series of books is breaking all kinds of box office records. Stephenie Meyer is hot. Smoking hot.
Here’s the kicker; Meyer only began writing books five years ago.

Sorry Vick, but humanity’s going in the crapper REAL FAST and statistics like this don’t help.

Oh my. Alice, just once, could you tell us what you really think? Wow. What a fabulous, incisive comment. Next time, don’t pull any punches. OK? (I love her comments….)

And I would guess that about 99.9% of that 85 million were purchased by people under the age of fifteen. Anybody that wants to find out how to become a bazillionaire needs to just check with the marketing team of Miley and the Jonas Bros, which Stephenie Meyers has clearly done. I thought about doing it myself - creating a mindless character, a back story and the branding to go along with it - because I could always use the money… but I decided I would be a much better person if I didn’t contribute to the corruption of our materially fixated, overly indulged children. On the other hand, why not take advantage of their guilt-ridden, financially irresponsible and probably absent parents?

I saw the first movie and don’t have any interest in seeing this one. “Vampires” and little boys portraying them just don’t excite me.

I was going to tease you about calling her hot, but after seeing her picture on google, I have to agree. She’s hot.
