Stephanie Meyer's Midnight Sun "On Hold"

Stephanie Meyer's latest book Midnight Sun has been put on hold "indefinitely." A rough draft had been leaked and appeared online. Meyer posted a message about the leak on her Web site: "I think it is important for everybody to understand that what happened was a huge violation of my rights as an author, not to mention me as a human being. As the author of the Twilight Saga, I control the copyright and it is up to the owner of the copyright to decide when the books should be made public."
Midnight Sun will tell the story of Twilight, the first book in Meyer’s series, from the perspective of Edward, a vampire and love interest of heroine Bella. Meyer wrote that she would prefer her fans not read the unfinished draft, but she has posted the entire leaked draft on her site. Currently no decisions have been made regarding the publication of Midnight Sun.
A film adaptation of Twilight arrives in theaters November 21.
