geezer lit

There's chick lit, kiddie lit and now geezer lit.

I've long thought older people (read over 50 and up) don't get a fair shake in books.

I like young love stories, but so many of the people that I know of the troiséme age, as the French call it, are not sitting around home rocking away. They are out visiting exotic places, finding new careers or at least hobbies that they are passionate about.

The woman who is the heart and soul of the Geneva Writers Group is 80 and still going as strong if not stronger than ever before.

We can't forget Granny D who at 94 walked 2,300+ miles to call attention to the need for campaign reform.

Grandma Moses painted over 1,500 canvases in the last three decades of her life -- she died at 101.

So in geezer lit we can have people doing stuff that is interesting..

There's a geezerlit.com web site.
