Daily dose

Let's start with the daily dose of Twilight. From the Independent (Ireland):

Meyer has stated that on June 2, 2003, she had a dream about a human girl meeting a vampire in a forest. The next morning, she started writing Twilight, and completed the book over the summer, citing influences as varied as Jane Eyre and the music of emo band My Chemical Romance. (Declan Cashin)

Now with those withdrawal symptoms out of the way we can move on to something altogether different. Actuphoto has a piece on photographer Marc Yankus, whose images

have also been used for theatrical posters for such acclaimed Broadway shows as Jane Eyre.

The Boston Globe reviews the local stage version of The Mystery of Irma Vep with the usual references.

And the stroll around the blogosphere has brought to our attention a couple of blogs: Neatorama posts about siblings of famous people (thus, in our case, about Branwell Brontë) and Nicola’s Thoughts on Anything writes about Wide Sargasso Sea.
