I am 28.

Sylva Plath was 28 when she wrote Mad Girl's Love Song

Ginsberg was 29 when he wrote Howl

E.A. Poe was 44 when he wrote The Conqueror Worm

And W.B. Yeats was 55 when he wrote The Second Coming

I still have time.
I still have time, damnit.

Yes you do! I'm 34 and I've been accepted to an anthology!

Also, just watched Hairspray again tonight~! (It has a Howl reference)

the hardest part is starting.
and there is no time or age limit on that.
Nike had it right: just do it.
(love, love, love the Plath)
