They're always from the age range 16-25, never 15 or below and never 30 and up. I get it's an age thing, and people wanna write about their age range, but I almost never see stories about kids or middle schoolers (despite the crazy amounts of 13 years olds on here), or older characters. I think it would be interesting to see books from a little kid's perspective on here. (unless there's an entire treasure trove of gems that never see the light of day)
Legit the hardest part about this chapter was figuring out names lmao.
How to fix?: Quite simple, just experiment with ages more often. I just had the idea, if you still want your story to be about high school, try plopping a crazy genius 14-year-old in a sophomore room.
