I would like to be a writer but I'm wondering how that will go in midlife. So I'm wondering what @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com's advice would be? Is 48 too late to even think about starting?
On a related note, I was hoping I could get your insight on something.
I haven't finished/published any books. I have, however, self-published several D&D adventure modules. One even won silver in the ENNIE Awards (I also wrote comic reviews until recently).
Is that enough to call myself a writer?
Right now I feel like I still need to put an asterisk at the end of "award-winning," since it came in second, but we'll see if the adventure I'm working on now makes it into next year's ENNIES.
