Have you ever wondered how The Twilight Saga became a worldwide franchise? Don't think it happened over night because many years of hard work and planning went into making this franchise possible. Take a journey back in time; before Robert Pattinson ruled the world, before we were a society obsessed with vampires and werewolves, and before a little known author named Stephenie Meyer had a dream.
We are traveling back to 2003 when the Sars outbreak had the world on high alert and most notable in the United States, U.S. forces seized control of Baghdad, ending the regime of Saddam Hussein. Over in Hollywood, Nicole Kidman won her first Oscar for her portrayal of Virginia Woolf in The Hours, Katie Holmes gets engaged to American Pie star Chris Klein, Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe become parents for the second time, and it is announced that Friends star Matt LeBlanc will get his own spin off coming in 2004.
Meanwhile, in the midst of the chaos in Hollywood, four hundred miles away a young mother who is tackling car pool, swim lessons, and dinnertime meals is about to change pop culture forever. It all began with a dream and it forever changed the lives of millions; shaping careers for hundreds and creating ideas for millions. On June 3, 2003, Stephenie Meyer mother, of three living in Phoenix, woke up from a dream that changed her life.
On June 2, 2003 Stephenie Meyer woke up from a dream and Twilight was born. She spent the next two years grabbing the story from her dreams and putting them into one of the most well crafted and detailed books we have seen this decade. These two years flew past as the author feverishly put together the story of Bella and Edward. Some rumors say that it only took Meyer three months to write Twilight but it look longer with selling the manuscript and editing.
