Congratulations! This is very inspiring. I have yet to finish my first novel and I am in my 50s. I remember submitting stories and poetry via mail. I often wonder if I still can write anything that is relevant or would connect to readers. I admire your courage and resilience to shift to a new genre. Thank you for sharing your journey.

Congratulations on your success! Your essay really resonates with me because I was over 50 when I began writing my novel-in-progress. Sometimes I worry I won’t finish it in time, but you give me hope. Thank you.
