->"If you're not writing for teenage girls, you're missing out on a lot of love."
-->-- '''Creator/StephenieMeyer''' in an [[http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20049578_2,00.html interview]] with ''Entertainment Weekly''

[[SpellMyNameWithAnS Stephenie]] Meyer (born 1973) is best known for writing the ''Literature/{{Twilight}}'' saga, and has also written another book, ''Literature/TheHost''.
----
* AuthorAppeal: Meyer has gone on record and stated that she's attracted to both Edward and Jacob.
* AuthorAvatar: Her character [[Literature/{{Twilight}} Bella Swan]] seems to be this, although Meyer claims that she is meant to be a kind of placeholder for female readers to project themselves on.
* AuthorVocabularyCalendar: Meyer seems to have a bad habit of over-using the word "chagrin" in her stories. One short story of hers uses "chagrin" and variations of the word at least three times.
* ButtMonkey: She's rather... ''disliked'', and her works are LoveItOrHateIt at best.
** She's been described as "J.K. Rowling as a ninth-grade girl who dots her "i's" with hearts and flowers."
* CreatorBreakdown: She had one when a few chapters of her new project ''[[PerspectiveFlip Midnight Sun]]'' were leaked on the internet.
* CreatorCameo: Shows up in the movie version of Twilight at a restaurant.
** She's also a guest at Bella and Edward's wedding in ''Breaking Dawn-Part 1''.
* DirtyOldWoman: Well, she's not that old but the fact she said that she would leave her husband for Edward, and the fact that his actor RobertPattinson said he feels uncomfortable when she's around, may count as dirty. He's gone on record as saying he considers Creator/StephenieMeyer to be mad, and ''Twilight'' to be a sexual fantasy that was never supposed to be published.
* FemaleMisogynist: She has been accused of being this.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Extreme cases will spell her name Steph'''a'''nie Meyer'''s'''.
* WantsAPrizeForBasicDecency: Boasted that she didn't pout when there were publishers that didn't wish to publish ''Twilight''.
-->'''Stephenie Meyer''': "I will state, for the record, that my queries truly sucked, and I don't blame anyone who sent me a rejection (I did get seven or eight of those. I still have them all, too). The only rejection that really hurt was from a small agent who actually read the first chapter before she dropped the axe on me. The meanest rejection I got came after Little, Brown had picked me up for a three-book deal, so it didn't bother me at all. I'll admit that I considered sending back a copy of that rejection stapled to the write-up my deal got in Publisher's Weekly, but I took the higher road."
** Sounds like a subtle TakeThat against J.K. Rowling, as Rowling has joked about sending rejection letters back to publishers after ''Harry Potter'' became successful.
