Writers: What do you think every new/aspiring writer needs to know?

I doubt that most "seniors" aspire to be centenarians I am 70 and my fellow peers simply wish to live as peaceful and painless a life as is possible. If you just think of age spots as large freckles then you have no problem. Whether we live to 65 or 105, there is no escaping the effects of old age.

Just accept it and live with it.

No we still have friends and family while we do have aches and pains. So for that I should want to die. Why would I think that way.

Each day is a delight. Yes I don't like the wrinkles and thickening body but the only way I get around that is to just die. I have things to do and places to go.

I have always thought that more mature people were better looking but the medial focuses on youth. They do that because you don't have the life experience to understand maturity and all that it brings.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
