There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I'm trying to track down the short story that "Brokeback Mountain" was based on. Any clue where it was published, what collection it might be in, or even if it was ever published online?

Anne, it was originally published in the New Yorker, and I thought I saw a link to the story on their website somewhere in my interbunny travels. Let me check the usual suspects.

Thanks, Sue! If I can track this down, it will absolutely make my mom's Christmas. She's a huge Annie Proulx fan, and hasn't been able to find the story anywhere.
ETA: THANK YOU!!!!
Mom's getting gay cowboys for Christmas! Whee!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Hey, I got none of that messy cache stuff. So I take a couple extra seconds to make it pretty.

Plus, in the bookstores lately there've been little tiny movie-cover versions of the story, with just that story (which is short, so seems silly to make a whole book out of it, but I'm sure someone's making mad money off it)

I appreciate both your efforts greatly. This will be a real coup for yrs truly.
