ScullingOnSquam has updated her blog, talks about her experience at a Twilight themed semi-formal.
On May 9, I drove to Duxbury Massachusetts to witness a Twilight themed semi-formal organized by the Duxbury Free library and involving three neighboring towns. This was certainly an adventure. I doubt I’ll be able to use any of the information I gathered academically, but personally it was very interesting to see this aspect of the Twilight phenomenon.

Bridget updated her blog, talking a bit about how her brother got more attention then expected, I wanted to thank her for putting our link in her post… as well as for posting the picture (and I’m sorry I hadn’t asked for permission >_<;) because it really was a great picture. I don’t find it creepy… I love it, it almost looks like a picture you’d see in the actual film -nod-

Stephenie was on the KUTV news show this afternoon, and you can watch the clip HERE, as well as read the article from KUTV HERE.

As some may know, we’re working on making a very, very, long Twilight playlist. Well, I took a “personal day” from school, and worked on getting some of what we already have put together. I have the Twilight part of the playlist put together. Remember, people can still submit music to the playlist! It will forever be open for more songs, but this is just what we have so far. The information you see with the song is what the person who submitted the song added, so some have more then others. I’m working on making a “TE Project Playlist Player: Version Twilight” put together, hopefully I’ll have that by tonight. For now, here is the list of songs (they aren’t in order of the novel… it became too hard because some people provided a specific spot, and some did not).

It works like this:
Thanks to BellaandEdward.com we have the scans of a small Twilight article that was in the UK magazine Shivers:
Michael Welch has updated his myspace blog:
Hey Twi-hards, Twilighters, and friends,
As many of you know, I came home following completion of filming on Twilight last week. It’s been crazy since then, with auditions, interviews, and reading all your comments and messages!!! Plus I’ve been trying to find some time to relax along the way.
I called a sort of distant relative of mine and answered some questions for her, and she has posted them on her site TwilightNexus. com. You can check out the interview here:

More updates soon!
