No, you’re not too old to publish your first book.
A weird thing about writing a first draft in the first person/past tense is that I don't know how the book ends, but my narrator does, having lived through it. And every time I try to ask her, she just rolls her eyes.
They say the book (they being us bookish folks) is always better than the movie, but is it still better when the author writes the screenplay for their book? You’ll only know if you read… https://t.co/Z5GRYtYYQ5
