Stephanie Meyer: Do you think she got the idea for the Twilight series from Heidi Stanton at BYU?

This was all a rumour. An official statement from Stephenie Meyer says:
"I am not being sued. No one has contacted me or my publisher to inform either of us that I'm being sued. I never had a roommate named Heidi. There is no professor in the BYU English department named Dr. Peter Benton (though there is a character on ER by that name). And most of all, I began writing Twilight exactly the way I've told people in countless interviews and events for the past six years: I had a cool dream, I wrote it down, writing it down was really fun, so I kept writing until I had a whole book."
Whether this is a lie or not, no-one knows - however it is very unlikely. Her story was extremely impressive and her ideas are unlikely to have come from someone except her imagination.
So she will not be sued - and the movies will continue with New Moon being released later this year.

Your welcome. She is quite an impressive writer - but I still think she didn't copy from someone!
