I am a mid-30s writer who is finding that all of the benefits of my youth are now betraying me in my middle age. My flexibility that was such an advantage in dance and gymnastics is now diagnosed as hypermobility and leaves me with unstable joints and many ankle sprains. The fun thing, though, is discovering actual REASONS for all these little things that have never made sense. So keep questioning and reading on! An answer is out there for you. My non-ailment side is concerned with writing fantasy novels for young teens. Children—and especially adults—need to keep their sense of wonder as long as they can. How else can we navigate this crazy world if we don't have stories of people rising up against incredible challenges and finding their true strength in the process?
