ORMOND BEACH, FL - - If you're not a "young adult" you may never have heard of the 'Twilight' series of books and films featuring a young vampire hungering for love (pun intended). You're not alone. Last year, about Labor Day, we wandered into Forks, Washington as we headed for Olympic National Park. Bingo. This is the town/area where the books' author, Stephanie Meyer, set the action.
So what? Well, after 10 years the author has just released book number 5 ("Midnight Sun") in the series. It's number one on the USA Today best seller list with one million copies ordered. Sounds like a shot in the arm tourism/business-wise for a sleepy town of approximately 4,000 in logging country.
