From the Metaphorosis Library Collection, an anthology of science fiction and fantasy stories by authors over 50. These are not necessarily stories about ageing, but stories by authors whose long life experience informs their writing.
Writing is a timeless, ageless thing. Some start when they're in their teens, some when they retire. Some write their whole lives, some only for a few years, but all writers bring to their work the things they've learned and felt. Here are 20 stories by writers who have a lot to bring to the table.
This collection of stories by older authors is drawn from Metaphorosis magazine's first nine years of publication. They include light-hearted stories of gnomes and exes, of magic and discovery, and of tenacity and resistance. They'll all bring something new to your life!
