Any Older Edinburgers?

I'm 35 - so not quite into my dotage but university feels like a long time ago now!

Hi, I'm 39, and not dead yet.

Hi, I'm quite a bit older than any of you and I am still managing to force my gnarled old fingers to the keyboard and typing out what I hope is a story (but due to senility am not sure if it is!! - though the positive side of senility is that I don't really care what anyone else thinks of it).

I didn't start writing until age 60. I can't claim your famous city, home of my great grandfather, but I share the experience with you. I think I get better with age. I can still think and feel like a 20-something, with all the experience behind it.

This is a good thing :-)

As I've witten on the 30-40 forum:

44, short, fat and balding.

None of the above stop me writing and I've been writng since I was in my teens. Been in Nano for six or seven years under various guises.

During all those years I've always found age-ism an issue. But don't care.

Oh and I know I don't stay in Edinburgh, but I'm middle aged and deserved a say.

It's not about me it's about the books.

I'm 32 and highly immature with it (it's my way of trying to live forever). This year's nano is based on a story I started working on when I was 12 (it'll be twenty years in December - making it an older project that a good portion of the students; NOW I feel old...)

I am also known as 'Twisted Sister'. If you're lucky, you'll find out why. If you're unlucky, you'll find out why.

I think having sons in their 20s and (ha ha - sorry) now 30s has made me think of myself as young, whereas in fact it has aged me horribly before my time!

I really like that NaNo brings folk from all across the spectrum together to participate in this novelling insanity - it makes me feel better when I'm trying to wrangle that awkward character that there are dozens of us across the city doing the same thing during November. :)

I'm writing a first person narrative and can't decide whether the narrator is the same age as me...

Ok I should perhaps add that my memory is older and tireder than some other parts o me. See profile, is what I meant to say!
