Question about midnight sun (read for more details)

So, I read midnight sun (Twilight through Edward's eyes) off of her website.. and it was really good. Probably better than twilight for me. And I was wondering if she's going to do each book through edward's eyes, or if she was only doing the first one. Because here, it sounds like it's only going to be one book, Help please!

"The second reason that I changed my mind is a little bit silly—I just would really love to have a pretty, matching, bound version of Midnight Sun to put beside Twilight on top of my desk. So I'm going to try to have it published as a complementary novel to Twilight. It will take a while, because I can only work on it between editing stints, but I hope that someday I'll be able to see Midnight Sun on the bookstore shelves next to Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, and etc... (Fueling my belief that Midnight Sun is worthy of publishing is my mother's about face—after reading the first eleven chapters, she thinks it's magic and says I should go for it.)"

I don't really have an answer for you.
As far as I know it's only rumors going around, and very little proof behind those rumors.
One of the most popular of those is that Stephenie Meyer will be finishing Mindnight Sun (eventually) and that she will be writting New Moon from Jacob's point of view, and calling it Full Moon.
Personally, I don't know if I believe this.
I really hope not, because we were there for Jacob's story and he almost always just says what he's thinking anyway.
With Edward, we never find out anything besides that he was as useless as Bella was.
We never get to see what it was like for him.
When I read the Twilight series and think about it from Edward's point of view, I get all excited, because there are always so many unanswered questions with him.
But I haven't seen any real proof that Full Moon is real, so it's probably not even true.
As for Midnight sun and so on, all we can do is hope.

Midnight Sun was an expected companion novel to the book Twilight by author Stephenie Meyer. It would be a retelling of the events of Twilight from the perspective of Edward Cullen as opposed to that of Bella Swan. Meyer has stated that Twilight is the only possible book from the series that she plans to rewrite from Edward's perspective. To give them a better feel of Edward's character, Meyer allowed Catherine Hardwicke, the director of the film adaptation of Twilight, and Robert Pattinson, the actor who plays Edward, to read some completed chapters of the novel while they filmed the movie.

As of August 28, 2008, the release date of the book has been postponed indefinitely and it is not certain that it will be published. Meyer halted the writing of Midnight Sun after the illegal leak of 12 chapters of the unfinished manuscript on the Internet. She stated, "If I tried to write Midnight Sun now, in my current frame of mind, James would probably win and all the Cullens would die, which wouldn't dovetail too well with the original story. In any case, I feel too sad about what has happened to continue working on Midnight Sun, and so it is on hold indefinitely." Meyer does plan to publish the book, because she believes Edward deserves to have his version of the story, too.

Meyer later slightly recanted the statement that appeared on her website, telling EW "That was a joke! And it sounded so serious amidst all the lawyer talk and I think my fans thought, Wow, she's threatening to kill everyone! [Laughing] I felt kind of bad about that. I never felt any anger, actually. Just a lot of sadness. I mean it was a sucker punch — like someone came up behind you and just hammered you in the kidneys and you had no idea it was coming."[4] She has made the leaked chapters available on her website in fairness to her readers, now that the novel has been compromised before its intended publication date.

In a recent interview done with EW, Meyer has stated that, "So my goal is to go for, like, I don't know, two years without ever hearing the words Midnight Sun. And once I'm pretty sure that everyone's forgotten about it, I think I'll be able to get to the place where I'm alone with it again. Then I'll be able to sneak in and work on it again."This statement jokingly lead to the creation of a nickname for Midnight Sun, created at the Twilight Lexicon: Dark High Noon, in an attempt to still be able to talk about Midnight Sun, but not mention its name directly.So in 2 years propably and it will be the only book from edward`s proscreptive.
