Paul
Sheldon is the writer of the very successful Misery series of romance
novels. When he is injured in a car accident, his legs are broken and
he cannot walk. He is taken in by Annie Wilkes, who says she is a
nurse. She brings him painkillers, feeds and clothes him and rants on
about how she is "his number one fan", even introducing Paul to her pet
pig named Misery. Annie reveals to Paul that she was following him the
day he got in his car accident, which is how she came to be his
caretaker.
