The Short Second Life Of Bree Tanner Competition For UK Fans Courtesy Of Waterstones
The lovely people at Waterstones just emailed me with the details of this great competition for UK fans -To celebrate the launch of Stephenie Meyer's new Twilight saga novella, The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner, we want to find the nation's most enthusiastic, fun fan to represent the Twilight generation when the first copies of the book arrive at Europe's largest bookshop, Waterstone's Piccadilly.
Twilight fans love to talk about the books, the characters, the romance, the mystery and everything else contained in the four books of the Twilight saga: Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn. But how would you sum up what's contained in those hundreds of pages for someone who's never read the books? In a minute. On camera.
We want to see you reduce the entire Twilight saga to just 60 seconds of inspired enthusiasm, passion and imagination. The rules are simple - simply film yourself explaining the entire Twilight saga in 60 seconds or less, post your film on YouTube - with the tagline "My Twilight in 60 secs" - and add the link to our Facebook page: facebook.com/waterstones, so we can judge the best.
Use your camera, your mobile phone, your camcorder - whatever you like.
We'll choose one winner (UK only) to be our 'spokesfan' on Friday 4th June. The lucky winner will also be able to bring along up to 2 friends (plus a responsible adult if under 18), stay in a top London hotel, get loads of Twilight saga goodies, plus £500 spending money and have the first copies of The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner delivered to their hotel room door at the official publication time of 5.05am on Saturday 5th June.
So what are you waiting for? If you live in the UK, hurry up and enter to be in with a chance!

Eclipse Soundtrack - Other Songs By The Artists That Feature -
The songs from the Eclipse soundtrack have been revealed, but we will still have to wait a while longer to actually hear most of them. So, for you guys to get the flavour of what these artists are all about, here is a selection of their other songs for you to listen to. Do you think they suit the feel of Eclipse?
First up is Metric - Their song for Eclipse is not yet available. This song actually featured in the soundtrack of Vampire Diaries -
Next on the soundtrack is Muse - Neutron Star Collision (Love Is Forever) has not been released, but I'm hoping it will be along the lines of their other songs -
The Bravery - Their single Our's that will feature on the soundtrack is still under wraps, but here is another of their songs. I've liked the Bravery for a long time and I'm really glad they're on the list!
Florence And The Machine - She was on the New Moon soundtrack, and is back for Eclipse by popular demand. Once again her Eclipse offering is not yet available, but here is another of her songs that is quite apt.
Sia - This was a new one on me, I'd not heard of her before, but she has apparantly been on the scene for quite some time. Her single for Eclipse is called My Love, but here is a look at one of her others songs -
Fanfarlo - Atlas - Here is a live version of the actual song that will feature on the Eclipse Soundtrack -
The Black Keys - Another band I hadn't heard of until now. Their Eclipse track is not yet out in the public domain, but here is another of theirs...
The Dead Weather - Their track is also not yet available, but here is another for your consideration -
Beck and Bat For Lashes have collaborated for a song on the soundtrack, which is still under wraps, but here is a sample of both. The Bat for Lashes song was also used on Vampire Diaries -
Vampire Weekend - Another band I had not really heard of before now. I like this song from the video I've embedded, I hope the one on the Eclipse soundtrack is as good.
UNKLE has collaborated with The Black Angels on their track for Eclipse. The track is not yet available so here is a video of each of their previous songs -
Here is a previous song from the next band on the Eclipse soundtrack, Eastern Conference Champions -
Really excited that the next artist, Band Of Horses, is on the soundtrack. Here is an older song of theirs -
Cee-Lo Green is perhaps a surprise entry on the soundtrack, going on his previous songs. Once again his soundtrack song is not yet out, so here is an older song -
Finally, Howard Shore will be the last track on the soundtrack. It's pretty amazing that he has contributed music to Eclipse, as he was responsible for the Lord Of The Rings soundtrack as shown below. Yay Summit for getting such an amazing guy on board.
So there you have it, a little taster of the artists who will feature on the soundtrack. Check back for more news, as the actual tracks become available.

Breaking Dawn Release Date Finally Confirmed!
HitFix confirms the official Breaking Dawn release date!
"A Summit Entertainment spokesperson has confirmed to HitFix that “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn” will open nationwide on Nov. 18, 2011. It’s still officially unknown if “Dawn” will be broken up into one or, as rumored, two films. Stars Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner are all expected to return."
This has officially been confirmed by Summit to other sources also, so it's looking pretty concrete!
I seriously cannot wait for this movie/movies! If they can do this properly, it's going to be epic!
The only question remains is whether there will indeed be two movies... What do you think?

Muse Will Be On The Eclipse Soundtrack - And They Have The First Single!
Stephenie Meyer's official website has finally announced the first single from the Eclipse soundtrack, and it features old favourites, Muse! Woop! Here is the official statement - "The first single on "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack" has just been confirmed and I get to bring you the exclusive details. Stephenie's very favorite band, Muse, has contributed a song called "Neutron Star Collision (Love is Forever)" and it's the first single from the project. It will be out on May 17th. I haven't heard it yet, but I am very excited. The official soundtrack will also be available on June 8th. You can pre-order the Eclipse soundtrack here."
I. Can. Not. Wait!
New Official Eclipse Stills!
I have to say, one of the things I didn't like about New Moon was the sudden change in dress sense that the Cullens seemed to have. Edward's suits made him look too old fashioned (which I know he is, but it just didn't look right...) they seem to have started blending back in with modern society in these stills, and I am right back on the Team Edward band wagon!
