Costco is all over. In Japan, Europe, and places. surprised We have 3 stores we can go to within 10-20 minutes from our house. xD

~[girlygirl]~ PrimeOdd ~[girlygirl]~ ![User Image](https://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll179/sara_666_2008/Watermelon.jpg) Toast the fine folks casting silver crumbs to us from the dock. Jinxed things ringing as they leak through tiny cracks in the boardwalk. Scarecrow, now it's time to hatch sprouting suns and ageless daughters. Don't you know? Don't you know that those watermelon smiles just can't ripen underwater? Just can't ripen underwater.
So the same story in different character's points of view.
That's a bit lazy sounding to me, and it seems like she's milking the series for what it's worth. Which means it's going to gradually get worse. >.>
I'm just stating an opinion.I don't think it's lazy. surprised Stephenie Meyer didn't want to prolong the story, but she still wants to build up the characters. Plus, she isn't even writing the book for us. She's writing it for herself. So, if she was lazy, she wouldn't write any story at all. So she wanted to get a new book out as soon as possible. And if she were writing it for herself, then why is it being published? o.o
I'm not hating on Twilight. Please don't think that. DX
Where did the "new book out as soon as possible" thing come from? xD And she published it because she wanted to share it with the world! No fun being selfish. And what's wrong with making a little money off you something you love doing?

"She didn't want to prolong the story, but she still wants to build up the characters." That's what it translated to in my head.
Well, in my eyes, and I write... If you're writing it for yourself, you might as well not bother with the details, shove it in your desk drawer, and forget about it. But that's just me. =/

Prolong the story as in drag it out. Make it too long, and make the ending have little significance. I wasn't talking about the amount of time spent writing it.
The story writes itself, as Stephenie says. She's just along for the ride.
