Motivational Poster - Twilight

Description

Edit: I got a better camera and took a better picture. Yes, it is MY picture of MY books. No copyright infringement here. I did use a Motivational Poster-maker site, though, here: [link]

I'm going to make this a poster and keep it right above my writing desk.

So I had this epiphany. I actually liked Twilight the first time through, but I've never understood WHY that is, being as the series is one of the worst pieces of work I've read in a while. But my epiphany came to me the other day: I hate the plot, I hate the writing style, I hate the... everything, but I like the characters. It explains why I like Twilight but cannot seem to get through it a second time.

Stephanie Meyer could have done so much better. A few cheap writing classes here and there and she could have had me hooked all around. When you have that many characters, you need to do something with them, not just have them there. They need a purpose, something to do to justify their existance. If you took out say, Esme or Emmett, the plot would have continued, nothing would have changed. (Emmett's my favorite character, though!!) Even Rosalie would not have been missed, and they could have learned to fight from someone other than Jasper.

And do NOT get me started on the 546 vampires that show up at the end of Breaking Dawn. W.T.F?

All right, I'm done. Sorry.
