Age doesn't matter ...Happy New Year, Cathrina!<br /><br />Age doesn't matter at all. There are many writers under the age of 25, 30, 35, or 40 who feel like they're running out of time. Remember that plenty of bestselling authors didn’t publish their first book until they were 50 years old or even older.Michelle Wallacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02750092836481599870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3481323769336692447.post-89300185769865858292022-01-07T16:28:14.715-05:002022-01-07T16:28:14.715-05:00One of the reasons I started so late with writing ...One of the reasons I started so late with writing is because I didn't really like writing. Avoided it like the plague. But my work required me to write, so I learned to like it. I wish I'd enjoyed writing a lot earlier.<br /><br />And you're right, age doesn't matter when it comes to writing.<br /><br />Happy 2022!Chemist Kenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09738272332470397248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3481323769336692447.post-49970020474994828222022-01-06T19:25:40.167-05:002022-01-06T19:25:40.167-05:00Good on you for picking up the pencil again.Good on you for picking up the pencil again.Sandra Coxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03814573408898140885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3481323769336692447.post-25927918897397465442022-01-06T16:16:28.839-05:002022-01-06T16:16:28.839-05:00Good to hear that.
