traceypharm, I found a copy of LJ Smith's correo electrónico here
link "You see, I’ve been fired from The Vampire Diaries—mainly because instead of giving my publishers the strict Stelana they demanded, I went ahead and
wrote what my corazón told me to do. They wanted Elena to “realize that she was fond of o physically attracted to Damon, but that her one true amor was Stefan.” But I didn’t see the series that way. And so Midnight is the last
Vampire Diaries book you’ll see por L. J. Smith."
She goes on to say: "Even though they are copyrighted to me, I still can’t write
them without Alloy’s permission. And they really hated any Delena content—as well as the many scenes I had dado to Bonnie, which they wanted to cut. They demanded only Stelena... tu can kiss any más truly meaningful Delena moments goodbye, because I’m afraid it just isn’t the view of Harper o Alloy."
She ends the correo electrónico por saying that she's sorry that Delena readers will have no hope of anything other than a Stelena endgame.
