SM speaks about J.K.Rowling...

"Twilight" Author Stephenie Meyer Talks J. K. Rowling

In a new interview on MTV.com Stephenie Meyer, the author of the popular "Twilight" novels, discusses Harry Potter author J. K. Rowling along with the similarities she finds between the "Twilight" and "Harry Potter" series. While Mrs. Meyer notes she has not yet had the opportunity to meet her fellow author, she does say she "would love to sit down and talk with her." She continues, noting the fact that while both series are hugely popular among younger readers, comparing one series to the other is something she finds difficult to do. She states:

"The interesting thing about the comparison is that I think you can compare my fans to her fans more easily [than me to her]. I do think that we both have people who are just really really enthusiastic, and will come miles to see you and be involved, and everybody really cares about our characters. But the ['Harry Potter' and 'Twilight'] stories are just so different."

"J.K. Rowling's audience is everybody, so that means we all have a piece of her audience," Meyer laughed. "It's terribly flattering to be compared to her, but there's never going to be another J.K. Rowling; that's a phenomenon that's not gonna happen again."

Yeah, I totally agree with her on that part too. HPs a phenomenon that's never going to happen again, at least not for another 100 years at least.

And yea, SM sounds like a humble person.😊She seems so much nicer than some of her rabid fans.
