Meh, I just find it to be unnecessarily punishing and bleak. It’s just written to make us sad for no reason.
I think the article is just existing to be negative and inject punishing thoughts about age, to make sure we all have these anxieties even if we don’t have them naturally.
The funny part about the young author example, how older authors are not exciting to discover? Yeah the richest and most successful author of all time was discovered when she was 32. J.R.R. Tolkien published The Hobbit at age 45. Little House on the Prairie? Published when Laura Ingalls Wilder was 65.
I just don’t understand the point of this article other than to transmit bad vibes.
