Inspirations: - Stephenie says, “It was such a great dream that I didn’t want to forget it, so I sat down at the computer and wrote it down.” The dream was an inspiration and a start of her prominent career. -The book Jane Eyre: Stephenie Meyer's inspirtation for her characters. Elements of Edward in Edward Rochester ane elements of Bella in Jane -The book __Anne of Green Gables__: Stephenie says, "The series influenced hoe my series turned out. Because I was never a fan of the stories where everything ends and theh kiss at the wedding. Anne of Green Gables started out with her as a child, she had a very fully described adolesence, she got to see her have her first child and lose her first child, we got to see her children grow up. We got the whole life, and I loved that." -Muse: Stephenie Meyer says, "The universally work for my writing style. if I have to write a scene of despair, 'Apocalypse Please' will work. And if I have to write an action scene, I can put on 'Assassin.' If I have to write a scene about love, 'Starlight' will work. They have so many emotion!" -The band 'My Chemical Romance' influences Stephenie Meyer with Jacobs character. She syas, "This band is so in touch for me with Jacob's character. This really raw, uncontrolled imotion-where it's not about sone perosn who's grown up and callused over and learned how to control things. It's someone who's feeling it for the first time and just wants to go out and blow things up. The song 'Famous Last Words' is a really romantic version of Jacob saying, 'Okay, I'm putting myself out there, and you're probably going to break me, but that doesn't change the fact that I'm still going to make the offer."

Quotes: From 'Twilight' -Stephenie Meyer "And so the lion fell in live with the lamb..."he murmmured. I looked away, hidig my eyes as i thrilled to the word. What a stupid lamb," I sighed. What a sick, masochistic lion."

From 'New Moon' -Stephenie Meyer "Forbidden to remember, terrified to forget; it was a hard line to walk."
