Stephenie Meyer, if you don’t know the name then you must be living under a rock.  But for those of you who don’t know, let me just say one word…Twilight.  I can hear you saying it now… OH!, yeah, I know she wrote about the vampires and werewolves.   For those of you “Twihards” out there you are instantly choosing your side of Team Jacob or Team Edward not to mention all I would have had to say is Stephanie.
She is a woman who followed a dream, quite literally.   She dreamed of a girl and a vampire in a meadow who were discussing their relationship and how to make it work.  After all, how do you love someone you want to kill and drink their blood?   That was on June 2, 2003 and the rest is history.  The dream became chapter 13 of the book “Twilight”.

Stephenie went from mild mannered stay at home mom in Arizona, where she cared for her family, consisting of 3 boys and her husband; (That is a feat in itself!)  To a household name with a fan base in the millions and record breaking movies.   The Twilight Saga, as it is called, is not her only body of work.  Amongst the interviews, filming schedules, publicity junkets, family time and everything else, she wrote a fabulous Sci-Fi novel called The Host.
