Have you read that another author is accusing Stephenie Meyer of plagiarism? Yep. I'm not going to name the author or her book, she's saying was plagiarized for the simple fact I think she's seen how big the Twilight fan base is & this is her attempt to try & get people to read her book to make a little money. So if you want to know her name or the title of the book, google is your friend.
She sent a cease & desist letter to the publisher of "Breaking Dawn" claiming the Twilight tale contains a "striking and substantial similarity" to the so called author's book.
In her extremely detailed letter, she claims her book was published in 2006 -- two years before "Breaking Dawn" -- and it's no coincidence that many of the scenes are almost identical. Such as...
-- Both books contain a post-wedding sex scene
(Yes b/c no book out there has this scene in it)-- Both books contain a scene about a woman who's sick because she's carrying a child with "evil powers"
(How many books & movies have you seen with the same situation in it? Are they plagiarizing too?)-- Both books contain a scene with the death of the main character's wife
(I've read BD twice now & the only thing I can think of that she's referring to is that Bella "dies" and becomes a vampire. No other main character's wife dies)My question is, did it really take you more than a year to realize someone supposedly plagiarized your book?! Come on. The series is huge, the movies are huge, Stephenie Meyer is extremely popular & you take over a year to accuse her of plagiarizing. Give me a break. Go back into the woodwork where you belong & quit trying to make money off of someone else's success.
I most definitely will NOT be reading the book she claims is plagiarized, nor will I be giving any of her other books a chance for the simple fact I find this letter pathetic & so should you. Don't give her the time of day. She's simply pulling a publicity stunt to get people interested in her book. DON'T.DO.IT!
