Stephenie Meyer - the bestselling author dubbed the next JK Rowling - has shelved plans for her upcoming novel Midnight Sun after an unfinished draft was leaked on the internet. Read more here.

In a very close call of unedited excerpts nearly falling into the wrong hands, you may know--or not!--that I do...manage?...master? Nalini Singh's site, and I've been dyyyyyyyyying to launch the pages of excerpts for 2 upcoming books, Branded By Fire (from the Psy-Changeling series) and Angels' Blood (from a new, sounds-very-kick-ass! series). They're live now, so enjoy. Or, as I said to NS, "Um...yum!!"
