Oooh, Twilighters, look what I found! Four new scenes from Twilight (the book) that Stephenie Meyer deleted before publication. She was kind enough to post them so we could savor them. Enjoy the Twilight Outtakes. (You can thank me later... )

Thanks Tek
I wish the story about Emmett and the bear had been left in.

Lori, Emmet and the Bear was good, but I enjoyed all the outtakes. So, what if twilight had been 50 pages longer? I would have been happy to have the more complete version. James Clavel'sShogun was almost 1000 pages and I happily read it. Hmmm..... I wonder if Stephenie has other discarded parts of her books to post. ....One can only wish.....

Thanks Tekkie~ I'd rather have those scene more than the TONS of time she spent on werewolves!

ITA., Cat.. more Bella/Edward, more Cullens, etc. I am most def a "Team Edward" Twilighter. Maybe she could write a Jacob//WW novel for the Team Jacob fans... and write an "expanded/unabridged" version of twilight with more B&E for the rest of us. :fanning_myself_in_anticipation:

Thanks, Tek! You just made my day!

That would be nice! I'm not saying take them out, but must we hear every little wolfie detail?
Hiya Ilo!

Who the heck is Carol? In the shopping with Alice scene Carol is mentioned.

Ilo, you are so welcome. It made my day when I found these outtakes yesterday. I read them all in one sitting.

Cat, I was wondering who Carol was, too. ... And then I realized it was me! I went shopping with Alice. (Carol is my RL name.) Actually, Carol is never mentioned as a character until this outtake; I wonder if Stephenie had more in store for her in the Saga?

You are so lucky!

Wanna see what I bought? ....Hey, Cat, we're PATST.

I noticed!

But you're invisible as far as MB is concerned. I don't see you listed as a user here. Nice trick, Cat.

Hi there!

I was confused by that Carol thing as well. And that Rosalie wasn't mentioned in that context? But that would be a very bizarre typo to mix up those two names, wouldn't it?

That Badminton outtake reminded me of something. At first I thought that I know it from Edward's POV. But then it hit me, where I've seen this before! That was me playing sport games! Hitting everyone around me, trying to make beautiful lunge and running into volleyball set instead, and after that, staying at a back corner of field. Been there, done that!

So, Tek - shopping with Bella and Alice? I bet that was fun.

And, btw, what is PATST?

PATST~ Posting At The Same Time

I'm stealthy

Ilo, the best thing about my shopping trip with Bella and Alice? Alice paid for everything with her credit card. Alice is such a sweetie. ….PATST…. uh, I invented that one… I see that Cat explained Posting At The Same Time. …You can see on the bottom of the page who else is on the board when you are (unless they are in “stealth” mode like some posters here… ). So, I sometimes acknowlege that I see who else is reading/posting on the board with a PATST. Hey, those LOL and BTW acronyms have to be invented by someone. ….I’m like you. I wouldn’t qualify to be the next “Sporty Spice” either. Sports and me?

I have to wait for my head to stop hurting to read from the puter again...

I know, Cat. I much prefer reading from paper, but the print option is disabled in MS and the twilight outtakes. Otherwise, I would have printed everything out.

Hey Tekkie thanks for those deleted scenes

Seth, you're welcome. Uh... look for a PM tomorrow.

I whish there was some dictionary for all those...

I think there is actually...

probably more then one...

Hi Rigginsfan07
actually you're right- just found one... Things you can find with google... Guess this simple idea never occured to me

Ilo, aren't Google and the internet amazing? ...The trick is to come up with an acronym (or whatever those thingies are called) that becomes widely used. Just think how the person who came up with the ubiquitous LOL must feel, for example.

Tek, we just have to use your PATST more often, spread around the Internet, and after that, you could tell us how does it feel

Ilo, That would be so much fun. ... Then it will be your turn to come up with one.
