I had heard that many writers (and people in general) only really started perfecting their chosen arts in their 30s, that that was the decade for success, but I disagreed. 30 was halfway dead, after all, and I was too impatient to wait another eight years (or more) to figure it all out.In the end, I only had to wait seven years.
