Crazy, eh? click link @ bottom to go to complete article

This article is in Spanish, So

Smith Said: "Almost all the characters and major events in Meyer's books can be found in my books." In the postscript that Smith published between 1991 and 1996 and Meyer was between 2005 and 2007. Smith continued, "I challenge the author of" Twilight "to an open debate on the web. I want to see how she explains all the similarities. The row of newspapers have reported that the vampire myth is back, thanks to Meyer and Smith should be grateful.

Comment by Twilighter76 on October 2, 2009 at 11:41pm: This L.J Smith is ridiculous ! First of all IF L.J SMITHS BOOKS WERE SO GOOD AND original it would of been more popular than Stephenie's books but it's OBVIOUS THAT STEPHENIE'S BOOKS have hit people harder. Like it or not it's the truth ! And second I've read the Vampire Diaries books and FOR ME THEY WERE OK. I didn't care for any of her characters so Stephenie must be doing something else.
THIRD, WHY THE HELL IS SHE DOING THIS and why would she say this ? All vampire stories are similar in a way. Her show wouldn't have happened without Twilight.
I'M SO TIRED OF ALL THESE PEOPLE WHO COME AT TWILIGHT ! JEALOUS MUCH ?

Comment by Frances on October 3, 2009 at 12:18am: OMFG!!!! I read a TON of vampire books..and all of them are the same in one way or another!!! WTF!! She didnt invent vamparies!!! Ugh..she's just jealous cuz her books only were only made into a TV show on the CW (no offense to the other CW shows, lol)...and not into a HIT MOVIE like the Twilight series. Or a MAJOR explosive tv show like True Blood!! Whatever!! Jealous much lady? Ugh...and I liked those books too. Makes me not wanna continue reading the series now. She lost a fan.

Comment by Jac Cullen on October 3, 2009 at 12:20am: lol! come on ms. smith... lose graciously! and yeah, you lost! if the VAMPIRE DIARIES are so similar to TWILIGHT, then how come she's the only one that sees it, or has mentioned it? jealousy is an ugly diseasae, get well soon!

Comment by Gilda on October 3, 2009 at 1:59am: It's the media's fault too you know... Media seems to always compare them, which one better, which one hotter... Now Smith took the bait... What a fool...

Comment by Emmelie Cullen Black on October 3, 2009 at 3:15am: OMG! L.J. Smith sucks...

Comment by Taty Bernardes on October 3, 2009 at 3:20am: Actually this article is in Portuguese =]

Comment by juli bryant on October 3, 2009 at 6:30am: The Vampire Diaries is not as good as Twilight. The characters are not as strong or as well developed either. The TV show is ok but more like a soap opera. I have read so many Vampire books and all of them have stories about a human and a vampire falling in love. I believe everyone is right. She wants the media attention that she missed out on.
