Bookplanet: writers peak at 50

Are you fifty? This is your best time to write a best-seller, so get cracking.
"Fifty is the perfect age to write a novel, a study of the best-selling authors of the past 50 years has shown. The average age of writers who topped the hardback fiction section of the New York Times Bestseller List from 1955-2004 was 50.5 years. 'We wanted to discover the optimum age to write a best-seller,' said Bob Young of Lulu, a website for writers and independent publishers. 'Unlike scientists or musicians, say, writers tend to mature with age.'"
On other hand, if you're in your twenties, fogeddaboutit.
