moviesblog.mtv.com: STEPHENIE MEYER ACCUSED OF PLAGIARISM?

FROM MTV.COM: There are some things you can always count on in one of today’s modern vampire novels: a breathless, cross-species love affair, bone-breaking lovemaking, lots of smoldering eyes and buckets of spilled blood. But, according to TMZ, an author named Jordan Scott claims she saw a few too many similarities between her 2006 vamp tale, “The Nocturne,” and “Twilight” scribe Stephenie Meyer‘s 2008 book, “Breaking Dawn.”

In a cease-and-desist letter obtained by the site, Scott’s publisher claims the fourth book in the “Twilight” series has “striking and substantial” similarities to “The Nocturne,” part of a trilogy that 21-year-old musician/author Scott began writing when she was 15.

I think this accusation is total bullshit. I’m not even sure it’s true that SM has been accused of that. What do you think?

Many of the vampire series have similarities. Have you noticed the similarities between the Vampire books/series you read?
