Readers' Gossip on the Web

Okay, so I am sitting in my dorm room bored. I decide to search Stephenie Meyer and J. K. Rowling because I want to see if they are working on ANYTHING, new books or additions to old series.


Well, for Stephenie Meyer I found out these two books...Midnight Sun and Blue Sun.


I know most people have read her website or a website on the whole Midnight Sun tragedy. I can understand why she is not working on that project. I don't know if she will ever work on it again in the future or if it will never be finished. So, don't ask. When I saw Blue Sun come up, I was like "WHAT!" This title came up on Wiki Answers. It could be true, or it might just be a wild rumor. According to Wiki Answers, Blue Sun will be about Jacob and Reneeseme (I apologize if I misspelled her name). Meyer definitely left Breaking Dawn open ended to their relationship. She's one of those authors who writing I crave to read because it's just fantastic. I really hope Blue Sun is true. I would really like to look forward to reading another book from one of my favorite writers.

As for J. K. Rowling, I discovered she wrote a 800 word prequel to Harry Potter.

She wrote it on a note card for a contest. The profits from it were to go to charity, which they did. The story was published but only 10,000 copies. If you look it up, you can read a two sentence description of the prequel. However, I probably will never get to actually read the whole 800 words. Simply searching Harry Potter prequel will get the results you need. As for a full length novel, J. K. Rowling has said no. I was kind of disappointed, but a prequel would only reiterate what we already know about Harry's parents. Would it be cool? Absolutely! Is it really necessary? No. Honestly though, I definitely would love to get my hands on the note card prequel. Rowling is amazing. She has been my number 1 favorite, and she always will be. And, whatever she releases next I will be sure to pick up a copy to read.

That's all I got for now. If you know of any other authors who are releasing books (ones who haven't written a book in a while), feel free to post them. And, you are welcome to tell me more about these books (the ones above).
