New from Stephenie Meyer!

How did I not know about this until now? Meyer's new novella (short novel) is called The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner and it goes on sale June 5th. You remember Bree from Eclipse, right? Ha ha, neither did I! She was one of the newborns who tried to kill Bella and the Cullens in Eclipse. Part of the money Meyer earns from this project will go to the American Red Cross. It will also available as a FREE download at from June 7th to July 5th at http://www.breetanner.com/. I'm going to buy it though so I can add it to my set.

Here's part of what Stephenie Meyer says about Bree Tanner on her website:

"Actually, this has been a surprise to me, too. The reason why it's a surprise was that I never intended to publish this story as a stand-alone book. I began this story a long time ago—before Twilight was even released. Back then I was just editing Eclipse, and in the thick of my vampire world. I was thinking a lot about the newborns, imagining their side of the story, and one thing led to another. I started writing from Bree's perspective about those final days, and what it was like to be a newborn.
This story was something that I worked on off and on for a while, just for fun, in between the times I was writing or editing other Twilight novels. Later, when the concept for The Twilight Saga: The Official Guide came up, I thought that might be a good place for Bree. Her story is a nice complement to Eclipse; it explains a lot of the things that Bella never knew. So I dusted it off and finished it up for placement in the Guide."
Can't wait! Visit http://www.stepheniemeyer.com/ for more info.
