We need no reason to love Jake G., Maggie's lil bro, other than Brokeback Mountain. In 2008, I wrote, "I just watched Brokeback Mountain for the first time last night. Now I am sad.
"Not just sad for Jack and Ennis, though their love story is tragic. Tragic in all kinds of ways. There is nothing O'Riordan loves more than a good love story; Goddess knows it's just about all I write about, all day every day. And this one's just so profoundly sad.

I've never written a MM romance half this sweet, or this heartbreaking.
"And I'm not just sad because Heath Ledger will never get to make another film. Or that his family lost him. That, too, is tragic.
"But I'm also sad because now I want to be Jake Gyllenhaal's bitch. And that's just not going to happen, is it?"
