The main announcement about Midnight Sun is in the main forum, I recommend reading that. Actually, please go read that if you have not yet done so.

I will reiterate the guidelines I want for this forum.
- On topic to Midnight Sun, obviously, please.
- Spoilers* for the main 4 books should be marked us usual.
- I'm not sure if spoilers* will be an issue with Midnight Sun, considering it follows Twilight's plot. However, I am not done reading, as I am sure some others are not either. Some people may not read it at all. I don't know what they'd be doing in this subforum, but please be respectful. Whiting out isn't necessary, but major points should be announced at the beginning of a post.
- Better safe than sorry, people. If it's borderline on a spoiler, it's a spoiler. Let's not ruin anything for anyone. That's not cool.
- As always, let's try to avoid repeating threads.
- Stephenie Meyer has been severely hurt by this event. It is very serious, and I do not want to hear anything malicious directed towards Stephenie regarding the discontinuation of Midnight Sun. I'm hoping no one stoops to that, but I'm saying it now.
- I do not believe it is still an issue, considering it is on her page, but try to keep this as "legal" as possible. What I mean is try not to quote super long passages. Direct to the draft with a page number if you are citing more than a half page. Let's not spread this further.


* I mean major spoilers. Think to yourself, "Would I be annoyed if someone told me this before I read Breaking Dawn/Eclipse/New Moon?" "Would I tell this to my best friend reading Twilight for the first time?" or "Is this a major detail or surprising in any way? Does it change the course of the book or change a character's perspective?" Please just be considerate. If Midnight Sun doesn't hold too many shockers, this rule may be lifted for Midnight Sun only.

This is a discussion sticky, right? We should discuss a little.

So, once I finish reading the whole thing, I'll have more to say, but as for now...
I died when Meyer attempted to write in Spanish for the teacher. Y'know, if it was a student who was saying something incorrectly, I'd understand the mistakes, but it was the AP Spanish teacher. Dx It bugged me a lot. Meyer should've gone to freetranslation.com rather than babblefish. -.-
If she couldn't write the language, she could've kept it in the narration. Like, Our Spanish teacher turned to Emmett and asked him in spanish if he would help me. Or something like that since I forgot the exact sentence and stuff. xP

Well, she did say it was full of mistakes - a reason she was so embarrassed that someone distributed it, but I completely know what you mean. I'm just uberly pissed at the jerk who distributed it - now we can never read the rest!
