Thanks, what an interesting response. I do think it’s much easier to capture the feelings of characters closer to my own age — at the moment, the fiction market, romance especially, seems a little tepid for older female characters, here’s hoping that changes to become more representative. Best of luck with your writing and Happy New Year to you too.

At 68, I started a new chapter in my life: I moved to France. Alone. It turned out to be quite the page-turner. Still is — even when age insists on a part.
