Happy Birthday, Alexandra Ripley! May your day be as captivating and timeless as Scarlett O'Hara's charm. Your literary courage in penning "Scarlett," the sequel to a beloved classic, proves you're braver than Rhett Butler himself—after all, not everyone dares follow Margaret Mitchell!From Charleston’s bestseller status to breathing new life into Tara with grace and wit, you've given readers countless reasons to smile (and occasionally gasp dramatically). Here's hoping this birthday brings you joy worthy of an epic novel—and cake delicious enough that even Scarlett would postpone worrying about tomorrow.
Cheers to another chapter filled with laughter!
