    Despite booming worldwide book sales and incredible buzz surrounding the upcoming film adaptation of "Fifty Shades of Grey," "Twilight Saga" author Stephenie Meyer still has not read E L James' erotic trilogy.

    "No, it's really not my kind of book -- not my thing" she told Access Hollywood's Shaun Robinson with a laugh, at the "Breaking Dawn - Part 2" junket in Los Angeles. "But, you know, anytime somebody is out there being creative, that's great."

    Though E L James has credited the "Twilight" series with being the inspiration for her insanely popular BDSM novels, Stephenie hasn't gotten on board with the sexy material - but said she has glanced at "Twilight" fan fiction in the past.

    "I mean, I have read some fan fiction years ago and I found it really like, kind of cool. These people had these stories," she said. "I felt it was a little bit sad that they were doing them in a way where [the stories] weren't theirs, but I feel like all those people, they're practicing and their going to write their book, it's going to come out of them eventually.
