Always hope!

Don't forget Mary Wesley, who published her first book at the age of 80 and had a successful writing career thereafter!

Thank you for sharing this article; really enjoyed reading it. The replies to it show a whole host of older people being published; it's heartening that it appears there's little ageism in the industry. xx
