Olderpeople Stories

Getting older is no joke. Unless it's used as the punchline. It seems that once we (particularly women) pass a certain age, it's assumed that our personalities, dreams, sense of self, and thoughts about our future go right out the window. Surely we don't think about the future...aren't our lives over? By the way, the highest target audience here on WattPad is 25 and up - which confirms my point. As if the world at large, now that youth is behind us, thinks there is nothing left in our minds but maybe grandchildren, trips to Florida, and baking. As a woman rapidly approaching fifty...I can tell you this is complete and utter bullshit. I'm going to assemble a collection of 50 stories featuring leads that are over the age of 50. Some will be on the cusp...others far beyond it. Many will have elements of romance but not all. This will take a while but it's something of a passion project. I hope you enjoy the journey.
