I'm exactly the same! I've always made up stories in my head and it ahs inspired me to write them down! I know I'm only 15 but it is quite theraputic! I've started one set in the future where the earth has been basically destroyed and a girl sets out on a journey to get home and find her family and the boy she loves!
I hope you don't think that sounds lame! :lol:
I was surprised about how much the books ahd an effect on me! No other book ever has! I loved the Harry Potter books but Stephanie's books are somthing else!
I hope she never stops writing!

:D

I am a reader and a writer by nature, but during college I never had time to read anything other than course work or research topics I was writing about.

SM inspired me to READ for PLEASURE again! I started reading the series last fall, after I graduated college, and I was so happy to be back in the groove of reading for fun.

I can't get enough. Thanks for inspiring all of us to use our imaginations, yet again!

I started reading classics because bella likes classics.

total classics count has been raised from (pre-twilight) 2 to (post/during-twilight) 7.

Firstly, I already wrote a lot of fiction but post-Twilight the stories became more structured and interesting.
Secondly, she showed me that when something or someone amazing (Edward) comes along, you need to really appreciate it/them ! And by the looks of this post she has inspired me to write very philisophically ;)
If I had to choose between breathing and loving u, i would use my last breathe to say I love you...

well, i always knew i wanted to be an author, but i never really had someone to admire...i mean of course there ARE GREAT authors out there, but SM just had me hooked into her books, and i'd like to be able to write just like her.

A few people have said similar things but before high school I read tonnes, I was a big big reader. And then came high school, and with it came all the pressure of trying to fit in, so I never read as much. Then I came across Twilight, and couldn't resist it. It had me instantly, I couldn't put it down, and now I can't stop reading again. So not only did she inspire me to read again, something I didn't realise I missed, but she also made me want to be a writer, and write down the stories I've been writing in my head for quite some time now.

Yeah, a lot of people said similar things so sorry haha.

Also, she encouraged me to raise my expectations of guys, but I wont go into that because someones already said what I think exactly (:
Edward Cullen - giving girls unrealistic expectations of guys since 1901.

She inspired me to not read anything but what she's written. *laughs*
But you do now it's bad when I feel i'm betraying Stephanie if I read anything else. . . .
