Twilight Scandal - Stephenie Meyer Sued For Ripping Off Breaking Dawn
If this isn’t a case of desperate gold digging, I don’t know what is. TMZ is reporting that the massively successful, Stephenie Meyer is being sued by Jordan Scott for stealing her story line to write the latest book in her Twilight series, Breaking Dawn.
Scott claims the 4th installment of Stephenie Meyer’s “Twilight” series lifted her work. She says Meyer’s book — “Breaking Dawn” is a “significant literary departure from [her] early books…” She says it seems the book is “written by a teenager.” Yes, Scott was a teenager when she wrote “The Nocturne.”
Scott claims the two books “show striking, articulable and substantial similarities in the … plot lines, themes, dialogue, mood, setting, pace, characters, sequence of events, ideas and other similarities.”
Here are some of those similarities,
– Both books contain a post-wedding sex scene
– Both books contain a scene about a woman who’s sick because she’s carrying a child with “evil powers”
– Both books contain a scene with the death of the main character’s wifeAnd according to Scott, the dialogue in all of these scenes — and more — is extremely similar.
Jordan Scott wants all the copies of Breaking Dawn pulled and impounded, along with ‘damages’.
Like I said before, I think this is a total crock. But, I want to hear what you think. Has this part of the Twilight Saga been stolen? Drop a comment and sound off below.

We all know that Scott is looking for anything to base this on. But if you read all the book up until Breakin Dawn, the mood stays the same, so if Meyers stole the mood and plot for Breaking Dawn, then I guess she went ahead and stole it for every other book. There is no way Breaking Dawn will get ‘pulled and impounded’. I mean grow up, they got married, of course they’re going to have sex, when you have sex, you get pregnant (well you know), and when you have a part vampire baby of course its going to be ‘evil’. This Jordan really has not used her common sense as to where this could possibly go. Mediocre author Jordan Scott could not compara to Stephanie Meyer and her impact on the world right now. Jealousy’s a bitch, but Karma’s worse.
Everything is a spin off of everything these days! Which means, anyone who thinks Meyers is gracing them by taking part of their story lines will come out of the wood work now that it is an enormous world wide sensation! Funny…we didn’t hear of this when the books were released at all! Hey…one of my books has a vampire in it too. I see a similarity! LOL
Get real! Let the world read and the evil Scott needs to pat herself on the back for trying to be a gold digger! Scott is just jealous and it amounts to nothing more!
i don’t think she did. but im angry with her if she doesnt finish midnight sun and publish it.
Ridiculous!
I read the PDF and what can I say? The dialogue similarities are rather frequent, and news stories would be far more convincing if they posted dialogue snippets. I feel bad for this girl; she will immediately be called a gold-digger without people reading further into the story.
I am not surprised, though … has anyone ever seen the TV series Roswell? Isn’t Twilight a bit TOO similar to Roswell, except that vampires are swapped out for aliens? The two are biology class partners … he saves her life … his siblings are pissed when he shares their secret … they go to an Indian reserve to find out secrets about their origin … a little too similar; all the postings on the Roswell site at Hulu are like, Umm, isn’t this Twilight? Except that Roswell came first.
I think Stephenie Meyer just reads a lot of teen lit and watches teen tv shows and writes the equivalent of fan fic.
All of the books from the twilight saga have the same mood throughout the whole story line…anyone who reads or watches anything pertaining to vampires and love could say that the idea was taken…ever since twilight made it big, all you see is things everywhere involving vampires. Like the “Vampire Diaries” coming on tv; about a vampire trying to fit in and falling in love with a human. I think that anyone would want to try to be affiliated with anything dealing with Twilight, since the movie came out, but too bad. Stephanie Meyer is a great writer and deserves all the glory without someone trying to steal her thunder.
Renesmee’s powers aren’t exactly “evil”! As for being written by a teenager, that’s ridiculous because everyone has their own writing style based on their own personality –I know many adults who think they are still teenagers, in fact the world is full of people like that– not to mention that she HAD to write it for her intended audience, after all. Death of the main character’s wife. As far as I know, **Bella** IS the main character, NOT Edward. Edward’s the main character in **Midnight Sun** –which I hope will be published despite all the stuff people do to Stephenie! I’d love to get in Edward’s head!– NOT the Twilight saga (Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn). This law suit is ridiculous –it would make more sense under the current accusations if it were done **after** Edward’s version of Breaking Dawn, though I hope it doesn’t!! –and I hope Stephenie wins. It’s really outrageous!
honestly? I am a writer and I know that it is virtually impossible to have a completely original idea. I have written 3 novellas, non of which have been published, but they have been written. One is about 4 friends who are just trying to get through their Freshman Year together. Another is about a girl with a ’so-called perfect boyfriend’ who turns out to be an insane psycho-killer. And my most recent one is about a girl whos father dies in a tragic accident and she has to learn how to live her life without him. Im sure that if you read them, you would find similarities to other novels, because people write what they know. I read a lot of Meg Cabot and Sarah Dessen, so that comes out in my works. Just because something is similar, does not mean that it’s ripped off. There is no such thing as an original idea anymore. So just back off people. It may have been in her head subconciously, but that doesnt mean that she purposely plagiarized another authors works. Also, from the alleged similarities… wow, talk about gold-digging. In my last book my characters got married in their house and then had a post-marrital sex scene… the guy was also quite intent on keeping it that way. Did I plagiarize Breaking-Dawn too?
this scott person needs to grow up and stop trying to take all the glory of what she dident do. i mean if you read a assortiment of books im sure u will se the similarties in a bunch of them. if people r going to try to say someone is ripping off there plot lines make sure they use something more origanal.
I think it’s sad when people comment, when they clearly don’t know what they are talking about. The court document speak for themselves. She is not seeking money (so much for being a greedy bitch) She is a student, not seeking media attention (no career to advance there). She posted her book online back in 2003 where Meyer clearly found it. Doesn’t anybody remember the Breaking Dawn issues last year. The MTV segment where she had to answer questions to angry fans, lots of angry fans who didn’t like the book because it was so different fromt he other books? And finally, this girl had her lawyer (the guy that stopped napster) send two cease orders to Meyer and she did noting. Scott waited for a year to advance her career? what should she have done, what would you do if somebody stole your work and made millions off it??? I hope this girl wins and wins big!
they better still make the movie thats all im saying nd midnight sun better still be published.
“Jordan Scott wants all the copies of Breaking Dawn pulled and impounded, along with ‘damages’.”
Haha. Yeah, good luck with that. About half of the teenage population already has a copy of that book, if not more.
“they better still make the movie thats all im saying nd midnight sun better still be published.”
Meyers said she didnt want it to be read by fans. At least that’s what her website said. She also said that she didnt want it published. 0-o
I think she saying all of this about Stephenie Meyer book Breaking Dawn becuase she mad that her book did not get all the fame and was turned in to a movie. She wished her book was as famous as the Twilight Saga.
there is no way that she stole it.. she may have ended up giving something but no way did she copy it…. LEAVE STEPHENIE MEYER ALONE!!!
I think this is absolutely true, Stephanie Meyer is a terrible writer and stealing someone else’s plot/storyline oneshots and other major things is a sign of a writer dwindling down and asking for help because their comsumed by all the success. Stealing is a very very low blow in production success and she just basically committed literature suicide.
I think this might just be a misunderstanding. Maybe it was done by accident. Maybe Stephanie has read Jordan Scotts books a while ago, and when she was writing Breaking Dawn, she subconciously started writing similar things. Jordan Scotts books probably stuck in her head while she was writing and didnt realize that the ideas she thought she was coming up with, were actually memories of reading Jordan Scotts books. I dont think she should be sued for that. There are alot of books out there that are very similar to other books. Not all of those writers are being sued. Besides Stephanies books are WAY better!!!! Her books are WAY more popular. And shes sold alot more than Jordan Scott has ever sold. lol I think Stepanie Meyer should be left alone. I honestly dont think she purposefully did this.
I think that Stephenie Meyer is a wonderful writer, and there is no way in the world that she would do something like that. Look at the world there are so many things that look and seem like something else, come on give me a break. Some people must be broke and wants money. I stand behind you Stephenie Meyer.
OMg! I thought I was the only one who saw similar stories in both roswell and twilight! The scene with liz looking at max after she gets shot is reminescent of vella after Edward saves her from the car. But I appreciate both stories, along a all the hot actors! LOL p
AHAH!! this is freaking hilarious,
gosh, if breaking dawn did get pulled and impounded (which theres no way in hell) then, they’d be wasting their time, im sure that almost everyone who likes the twilight saga and has read them, has a copy already. This is so stupid, so if i wrote a book, and i had the characters wait to go have sex, and then it turns out that the guy wasnt a human or something, and then she almost dies, then Holy****. im coping this. and half the other things, today, lots of books are about waiting, and forbidden love and stuff, because THAT right there, is what keeps us teens reading. not some, that guy and i are dating, lets go do it, ladadadada crap. i mean, sometimes yes, but whatever, Jordan Scott needs to get a live and stop suing for false reasons. sorry for my language, this is just what i think.
This is so not going to make it to the courts. Stephanie’s writings came from her dreams. This other person is just a child and probably her parents want more money so they decided to sue. Scott is just upset that her own book didn’t fair as well as Twilight did. Maybe because the writing is so different in Twilight that it only proves that the story is Stephanie’s and not Scott.
i feel that this is just a way for this person to get public attention and that stephnie meyer is being wrongfully accused. just cause the book may be similiar dosent mean that it was stolen. i think that jorden is just jelouse that meyer is getting all the attention for her books. back off jorden your an idot who wants to be famous.
Well if it’s just those three reasons for claiming “Breaking Dawn” a copy then i don’t think there is anything to worry about. I mean come on, how many books can you think of that have a post wedding sex scene? And i am one hundred percent sure that there are hundred more books that the main characters wife dies. As for a mother with an evil baby living inside her, you could tell that twilight was heading in that direction before “Breaking Dawn” was even close to being finished. This is just my opinion, but i think i make a very valid point in saying “Breaking Dawn” is definitely not a rip-off of “The Nocturn”
so this is stupid
so i have read other books about sex scenes after the wedding
and one where the wife dies
so are all those books stealing her ideas or copying her?
i don’t think so i honestly think she just wants money
it is ridiculous
Okay, first off, what do people do after they get married? They go on a honey-moon and do you-know-what. Secondly, Bella is sick because Renesmee is using her blood as, like, a food source, not because she has “evil powers”. Come on, Renesmee’s power is COOL, not evil, and she’s half-vampire for crying out loud. Third, Bella is not a les-bo; she’s not married to a woman, so she doesn’t have a wife. And if my memory serves me right, Edward didn’t die, and i wouldn’t include Bella becoming a vampire as dying. Now, as for the similar dialogue, I don’t know, but there are only so many types of sentences and questions and whatever-else that one can use for scenes, like the ones listed. If you ask me, this Scott person is just jealous that she didn’t come up with THIS idea, first.
That is SOO unfair. Stephanie meyer is an AMAZING author and SCOTT should just forget about it. I mean… anyone who went outside and yelled if Stephanie should got to court JUST Because some THINKS shes copying them ( Which is SOOO not true) Anyone and EVERYONE who say no. I think that that SCOTT should just stop spreading rumors and keep there mouth SHUT about it.
i think that is bullsh*t because honestly those books are about the best thing out there for teenagers and young adults to read.. me personally i have read all 4 books and love it i cant wait for the all of the movies to be out.. and if he thought she was stealing his work then shouldnt he have done something about it a long time ago if he knew she was writing them books??? bella never dies edward doesnt die and renesmee is using bella’s blood because she is half human and half vampire… and they never had sex before they were married……but anyways its all nothin but drama the damn kid just wants money from her because she made alot of it after the books and now the movies and everything else that came out that was twilight….
ok, first off, so what if it was stolen, ive never even heard of the nocturn.if it was that big a deal then why wasn’t Scott’s book as successful as twilight has been?i mean seriously all this lady wants is attention.always always always about attention..that and money.i hate money.yeah its necessary, but i still hate the concept of it.and i hate that someone like scott would try to ruin someone else’s glorious life, just because they used some of her ideas in a story.maybe she hadn’t even read ur book.ever thought of that?plus i honestly wish they had never made twilight a movie..i mean there are some stories that just need to stay written. making it a movie is just making it easier for people who are too lazy to actually read when twilight is an amazing saga.i didn’t think i’d like it, but after i read the first one, i craved more of it.ive read each book three times already and i’ve only known about the saga for a year.it is my favorite thing to read in the entire world.i love it.stephanie is a genius.
this is crap. theres no way Stephanie ripped off scott. those similarities are true with half the books and movies out there in the world. theres no way breaking dawn will get pulled. this scott person just needs to shut it and stop complaining just because Stephanie has a popular book series and she hasnt.
Scott plain and simple is upset that a book that may have a story line that is similar to hers is selling so many more copies. She’s looking for a way just to make everyone’s life harder, which I hate those types of people, and to make easy cash in the process. People seriousy: the bullshit is spewing. We can’t let Stephanie Meyer take the fall for being an AMAZING writer!!
i seriously doubt that Stephanie did that, Stephanie seems like an original writer with a huge imagination. The book is about a wedding, vampires, and werewolves, so what? ALOT of them are. Stephanie is an amazing writer and I think that this Jordan Scott is simply just jealous.
this is all bs. i dont think stephenie stole anything! other people say that she stole the whole series plot from vampire diaries. but i think that she is telling the truth when she says it call came from a dream. everyone just wants to bash her because shes becoming famous from four books. i have read the books and i assure you i will not read anything like them again. even though she could have varied her vocabulary a little more, i really enjoyed them…and i cant even imagine her stealing the content from anyone else. so i just think every other author (especially one that no ones ever heard of) is just jealous of stephenie. i think shes an amazing author and they should all just stfu. kay thanks(:
This is so stypid stephanie is a brillient writer i love her books and anyone who says other ys is just crazy and has never read any of her books it may be similar to a couple of other books but it has originality written all over it keep making more books Stephanie and never stop plz
Sounds like an really desperate need for drama, attention, and really stupid job for gold digging.
This sounds like a good way for Scott to get people to buy and read her work. You know what they say, there is no such thing as bad media time. So Scott brings this up and now many Twilight fans that are out of stuff to read will go pick up Scott’s books to see for theirself, and wow now Scott has a best seller.
oh who really cares anymore! im not really a big fan of twilight but I do know how popular it is and i guess this Jordan Scott wants half the world to hate her. pulling Breaking Dawn of the shelves = mass attack of fan girls!
i think, when you’re a writer, your writings are all fairly similar to other books that really inspired you. i started writing a book, and the way i described things and the narrator’s perception of things sounded a lot like the way stephenie meyer described things in the twilight saga, even to me. everyone has their own opinion of stephenie meyer and of the twilight saga, but a lot of books are going to have similarities. and, if you’ve read breaking dawn, you know the baby bella was carrying wasn’t “evil,” they were only afraid of her because they had never heard of a situation like that and they were afraid she would hurt bella or be impossible to control. she was actually a very innocent, sweet child. and you can’t tell an author to stop writing a book just because it’s similar to something you’ve written! that’s the stupidest thing i’ve ever heard! jeez. everyone just needs to chill out. a lot of books are going to have similarities. there are only so many ideas in the world. and if she doesn’t have any more than three similarities(which aren’t even exactly right…) and “similar dialogue” (which tons of books have…), then she should really just let it go. i understand that it’s frustrating to have your work stolen, but i really don’t believe it was stolen. and i think breaking dawn was not that different at all from the other books. and how in the world would she write three books before the one she ripped off? three books that LEAD UP TO the storyline that she supposedly ripped off? it doesn’t make any sense.
This is sooooooooo ridiculous. Look at the similiarities posted:
– Both books contain a post-wedding sex scene
– Both books contain a scene about a woman who’s sick because she’s carrying a child with “evil powers”
– Both books contain a scene with the death of the main character’s wife
Post wedding sex scene???? DUH!!! Like Bella says earlier “she’s going to have a real honeymoon.” I bet TONS of books have “post-wedding sex scenes.”
Women get sick sometimes when they have babies. She had sex with a VAMPIRE. And strictly speaking Renesmee isnt evil. Thats what makes her SPECIAL.
BELLA DOES NOT DIE. In a way. She can still walk and talk and eat and stuff. So, technically…
This Jordan Stone has NOTHING on Stephenie Meyer.
HELL NO SHE DIDNT RIPPE THE BOOK OFF SHE HAS HAD THE SAME THING HAPPENING IN THE BOOK SINCE DAY ONE IF THE STUPID PERSON TRYING TO SUE HER WOULD HAVE READ THE BOOKS ALL OF THE WAY THROUGH MAYBE THEY WOULD KNOW THAT. THEY ARE JUST MAD BECAUSE SHE IS DOING SO MUCH BETTER THEN THEY EVER THOUGHT OF DOING AND SHE HAS EVEN GOTTEN HERS TURNED INTO MOVIES. ALSO BELLA DOESNT DIE SHE JSUT SIMPLY BECOMES A VAMP AN DHER CHILD DONT HAVE EVIL POWERS SHE IS JSUT HALF HUMAN AND HALF VAMP SO THEY CAN GET OVER IT AND GO F THEMSELVES. THAT S WHAT I THINK ANYWAY.
i also agree that jordan scott (whoever the hell she is) is a gold digger. Shes looking for publicity for her book nd $$$ (money). i suggest that if she wants publicity for her books she should write a book that attracts attention, like stephenie meyers saga. Plus ive tried to look for this book (th nocturne) on the internet nd in book stores nd i cant find it any where its like it droped of the face of the earth! anyway i also think that shes hatin on stephenie meyer because shes so much more succesfull then her. i suggest that jordan whats her face, hops off! because if she doesnt shes gonna get alot more enemys than she already has.
Omg this woman needs a life i mean seriously it was ovbious they were going to have sex after a wedding i mean what is a honey moon without sex?! and Renesmee is not evil she is just a very strong baby and shes thirsty so of corse shes gnna kill bella eventually (not on purpose) and i didnt think bella was a lesbian , bellas the main character and she dont die she just turns into a vampire i hope stephenie doesn’t get sued cus of this woman ( who i have never heard of) causwe she is a great writer and i cant wait for midnight sun
and no ones taking my copie of breaking dawn F*** them if they try!!!!!!
Stupid! Alot of books are about vampires that fall in love with mortals, but nobody has copy rights on that. There isn’t even much in commen about breaking dawn and that Idiots book.
Stephenie Meyer is an amazing writer whose writing style is completely unique. I personally have never read anything that has made me feel more in tune with the characters and their lives. I am reading all books for the second time after only stumbling upon the series a month ago.
I think it is silly to think that having similar characters means someone has “ripped off” someone elses ideas. If you asked 10 people to write a story about a human in love with a vampire all 10 people would come up with 10 different books all the while there would be similarities.
I am so pissed that Stephenie is having to deal with more bs after what happened to her with Midnight Sun. I was holding out hope that Stephenie would one day change her mind and decide to continue with the Midnight Sun project (If Anthony Hopkins can change his mind about doing another Hannibal movie Stephenie is certainly allowed to change hers) but can see that the whole Twilight Saga will end up being a project she will want to let rest.
While I am a huge fan of the Twilight books you can probably tell it is a bit of a sore subject that Stephenie has decided not to continue her project because one person let her down. Hopefully one day she will be in the right frame of mind to continue.
WHAT THE FUGDE how the in the poopie can u copy a book if its like the last in the series …. ? like u would have to change every book wouldnt u hmmm …? YEAAAA !!!!! anyways is whats its faces book even about vanpire romance and like the baby is soooooo not evil so u cant compare that and hello their married there gonna do it pfft thats in most books wth love and marrige and that seroiusly like can u just lay off its so not fair that poor stepenie has to deal with bs after midnight sun and all the other movie stuff she it the best author in the wold to me i read her books 100 times and every time they just get more and more intense, exciting, and actully supriseing… i think out of all the vampire books ive read hers are the best i can never stop reading the i cry every time edward leaves to hunt james cause u dont know if hes comeing bak, i cry everytime edward leaves bella in new moon , i feel for jake when bella dosent choose him in eclipse and in breaking dawn when she has renesmee almost gone then alice came with the other half vamp i was so happy ever time.. my point is that they are so original that u cant even copy it from some where else for rying out loud she dreamed up twilight jeezzzz just stop with the bs….. she had enough with the midnight sun mess which btw she is gonna finish soon .. i found it on her website anyway just stop her books are better no need to hate TEAM STEPHENIE, TEAM STEPHENIE,TEAM STEPHENIE wooow woow hehe love the movie cant wait for new moon ur the best keep on writing
ur biggest fan ,, violet - rose marie
I don’t think Meyer copied tbh, this Jordan’s just got a grudge for some reason. Maybe because Meyer’s books are doing so well and Twilight was a phenomeon? And with highly anticipated New Moon coming up, Scott’s just jealous.
Compared to other young adult/fantasy/romance/horror writers, Meyer’s done exceptionally well and is up there with JK Rowling. Other authors are just scowling at her and are trying to sabotage her.
Steph, keep on going don’t listen to these sadistic people, and please please finish Midnight Sun, I read the PDF of it on your site and it’s mind blowing!
I don’t care what anyone says, the Twilight series are the best, and I stand by Stephenie Myers on this one. She wouldn’t rip off someone else’s ideas for her books!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can’t belive some idiot is suing her for that!! Stephenie Meyer would NOT copy from anybody!! A lot of books have similar settings or events, anyway. And Bella and Edward are the main characters. Edward’s wife didn’t die!! What the crap!!
SAVE BREAKING DAWN!! IT’S THE BEST BOOK IN THE TWILIGHT SAGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They don’t even have proof that she copied!! So how can this Jordan dude sue her?!?!
I love the twilight books and movie. Let’s look at this logically, you get married ya gunna have sex, you get pregnant w? a vamp= “evil” kid and what ever on the last 1!!!!!!! I love you Stephanie!
Honestly if those are the similarities she is basing it on she should also be suing the writers of charmed, rosemary’s baby, and about a trillion other authors and screen writers who wrote long before Ms. Jordan Scott was born. Those are general ideas, that are hardly original, additionally in order to prove that some one plagiarized you, there has to be very specific things that are similar or the same, like dialogue or characters. Breaking Dawn is written partly in Jacobs voice, which has appeared in previous Twilight books not just Breaking Dawn, most the books are written from in Bella’s voice, naturally they are going to sound different. The characters are her own, their voices are her own, the specific interactions of the characters looks and personalities are her own, and Breaking Dawn keeps true to them. I seriously doubt that Ms. Scott has a leg to stand on.
thats bull crap im pulling 4 stephanie
You can take any book and compare it to another book, easily-its just how someone looks at it. Its easy to compare random things and make them see like there another, especially if you believe it enough. Scott probably wont win, and if she does, then she gets what she wants. In the end Jordan Scott probably just angry because her book wasn’t has much of a hit, now she getting what she wants-in the spotlight.
Hahahahahaha. Wow. Breaking Dawn was one of the biggest pieces of literary garbage I have ever read. I can’t believe that Jordan Scott would even admit that she wrote something similar to that pile of crap, much less try to get the credit for writing it first.
that’s ridiculous, that’s pretty much saying that Stephenie can sue all of these new TV shows that are coming out because they have to do with humans falling in love with vampires. Honestly Jordan Scott needs to suck it up and realize that Stephenie’s book was better then her’s. So please grow up you are not in grade 2 anymore
dear scott, even if you do win the court thing everyone will always remember breakking dawn it will stay forever no matter what she cant erase our memories meyer is a good person she doesnt deserve this she doesnt have time to go to court scott is just a big baby ok so the books have a couple things that are similiar who cares they arent exaxctly the same
Dear God…
This Scott person needs to lay off.
Did sheeven publish her books?
And if she hasn’t…how could Stephanie had known about them?
Really…this is a whole crock.
I THINK STEPHANIE MEYER STOLED SOME IDEAS FROM THE VAMPIRE DIARIES I MEAN THEY WAY ELENA IS A MORTAL LIKE BELLA AND STEFAN A VAMPIRE LIKE EDWARD.THE VAMPIRE DIARIES WAS MADE IN THE 90′S.AND TWLIGHT 21′ST CENTURY MEYER SHOULD GET SUED !I AM RELATED TO L.J. SMITH! ALSO I DON’T CALL SPARKLING EDWARD CULLEN A VAMPIRE.THOSE VAMPIRES SUCK LIKE HELL!VAMPIRES ARE SUPPOSE TO BURN IN THE SUN! THIS IS NOT TRUE GOTHIC VAMPIRE BOOKS!I DON’T CALL THAT LITERATURE! LONG LIVE L.J. SMITH AND ANNE RICE!TWILIGHT IS GAY! AND LAST WEEK MY PAL A TWLIGHT FAN TRIED TO KILL HER SELF WHEN SHE HEARD THAT ROBERT PATTINSON IS DATING KRISTEN STEWART!
this is completely rediculous. so wat if the stories are the same. anymore if u find a story that isnt the same u put it down and move on to another one. and these days its all about abstinence until marriage. basically if you dont write like everyone else you dont make money and thats that. and if the book sucked why would she steal it. me personally i loved the books. show me REAL evidence that the book is plagiarized and ill see a pig fly. this is all a load of bull crap. scott wont win end of story. there are to many books so the inpounding thing wouldt work. and even if they tried everyone would hide their books. stephanies got this and it wont be anything.
that’s bull crap… this jordan chicks prolly just pissed cuz Stephanie is an awesome author and her book prolly sucked. Attention Who**
ARE YOU JOKING?! do you know how many books in this type of genre have that kind of plot? this lady needs to get over it and accept that her books sucked and breaking dawn is amazing. Thats such crap, she needs to get a life.
All of these OMG STEPHENIE IS DA GREATEST comments are making me SICK. She is so… UGH.
I bet if it was Jordan Scott who was the successful and famous writer and Stephenie, the nobody, sued her for stealing her book you would say the same CRAP with the names reversed.
OMG JORDAN WOULD NEVER EVER EVRRRR DO THAT THIS STEPHANIE OR WHATEVER IS A GOLD DIGGER.
So please, shut up and go read about the gay and sparkly vampire and the pedophile werewolves. (:
i really dont think Stephenie Meyer stole from jordan scott even though i never read her books i did read all four of Stephenie Meyer’s
books and i love her books! she is the greatest author i have ever read from and i read alot but thats off the point i absolutely think that STEPHENIE MEYER would NEVER!!! steal from another author so i really hope that Stephenie Meyer wins. i hope she makes another book in Bella’s point of view.
the people who are bagging on Stephenie Meyer STOP!!! i really dont think that twilight fans dont want there dreams of reading other twilight books crushed just because someone doesnt like Stephenie Meyer
Okay honestly how long has breaking dawn been out? Scott is just coming out with this now? Sounds like a bunch of bull, besides its a little too late for all the copies to get thrown out, how many sales has it made already? Are they really going to track every person who owns it and take it away because it was stolen, no because that is just stupid. The damage is done whether it was stolen (Which I don’t really think it is although I have never read Scott’s books) or not.
Breaking Dawn is the inevitable conclussion to the Twilight series. Scott needs to realize that all works of art have a basis in all other works of art. it is foolish to think she could get books pulled or even sucessfully file a suit
Okay, one question? Have any of you ever read the book ‘The Nocture?’ Jordan Scott seriously, Stephenie Meyer would never steal other people’s published ideas so what’s the big deal? If you sure Stephenie Meyer i’m sewing you. Gosh, you are so childish! Maybe, you’re jealous of Stephenie Meyer because she’s a great author! Ii mean C’mon, Nursery rhymes have the same publishments, but they don’t get sewed! Scott, you are just a waste of time! Because i’m going to hold a protest now! Because Stephenie Meyer is a better authour then you could ever be!
“Here are some of those similarities,
– Both books contain a post-wedding sex scene
– Both books contain a scene about a woman who’s sick because she’s carrying a child with “evil powers”
– Both books contain a scene with the death of the main character’s wife
And according to Scott, the dialogue in all of these scenes — and more — is extremely
similar.”
The last similarity is false! Because Edward isn’t the main character! Bella is and Jacob! So Ha! Caught you out stupid Scott. People are opinionated, and Renesmee doesn’t have “evil powers!” Omg! You are so dumb! She used vampires and werewolves as the story line! That’s creativity!

I think he’s just trying to get some publicity because of how big the Twilight Saga has gotton. So what if ther are a few similarities. I think its common to have sex after you get married. I mean, thats what the honeymoon IS for, no? And, I’m pretty sure Bella doesn’t die, so, that takes out the idea of death of the main charaters wife. And, Renesmee doesn’t have evil powers. She has VAMPIRE powers. It’s all for publicity. Plus, the other 3 books built up to all of the happenings of Breaking Dawn. So, its not like she read the guys book, and wrote her own. No, she had a dream, and wrote a saga of books for us to enjoy.
I think the whole thing is total Bull.
And no, i’m not a fangirl defending Twilight ’cause I think it’s “Sooooo awsummmmmmm!!!1!”
But If there truly were so many similarities, we would’ve heard shortly after the book came out. Not now, a year later.
And everyone got an idea from someone, no matter how distantly.
Like maybe someone saw a vampire movie, and they decide, they’re going to twist the way vampires are a little, and write a book with their own plot, that doesn’t mean they’re plagarizing the vampire movie. It means they got inspiration.
I also doubt SM even got the diea from Scott’s book. The sex scene after a wedding, dear lord, that’s not exactly uncommon,
And the “Evil powers” not really. Nessie was just stronger than Bella was.
Death scene, WTF!!! Bella doesn’t die.
This is obviously a publicity stunt, played to get sympathy or money or whatever the hell the other author wants.
And at that, I rest my case.

thats just das bcuz i think this SCOT person is lying beacuase all the books are in a sequal so that kinda proves that scot is lying he just wants attention
Good on you Scott, I hope you win.
If you have actually read around this case instead of just glancing at the article before trolling (*cough*Twitards*cough*) then you will see that not only does Scott have a valid case here, she also has a good chance of winning when it goes to court (and it should)
As for Stephanie Meyer, I think she should never try and kill my braincells with another awfully written book. The story may be appealing to little girls but its not literature, its blasphemy.
BREAKING DAWN WAS THE WORST NOVEL OF ALL TIME.
So if some poor kid wants to claim it’s hers, more power to her. BD was a slap in the face to REAL Twilight fans, and a slap in the face to everything Smeyer told fans was possible.
LET’S NOT FORGET PEDO-WOLF JACOB and the freak baby.
Jacob got shafted as a character, it should have been Jacob and Leah. :/
