Happy Birthday, Annie Proulx! May your day be filled with more plot twists than "The Shipping News" and fewer complications than a Wyoming love story. Your Pulitzer Prize-winning prose has captivated readers worldwide—proving that the pen truly is mightier (and funnier) than any sword.From Newfoundland's rugged shores to Brokeback Mountain’s heartfelt trails, you've given us unforgettable characters who linger long after we've closed the book or left the theater. Here's hoping this birthday brings you as much joy as Heath Ledger brought audiences—and may your next chapter be even richer in adventure, humor, and literary brilliance!
