Don't worry. You might not have found your niche yet but you can bet you have a wealth of experience to draw upon.
Writer and humorist, Erma Bombeck was considered a late bloomer. At the age of 40, after bringing up her children, finding motherhood a struggle and feeling unfulfilled as a housewife, she drew upon her earlier confidence and walked into the local newspaper office and offered to write a weekly column. A year later, she was writing a syndicated humour column that ran for thirty years.
She went on to publish fifteen books, most of which became bestsellers, with titles such as, Just Wait Till You Have Children of Your Own! (1971), The Grass Is Always Greener Over The Septic Tank (1976), and Motherhood: The Second Oldest Profession (1983)—to name just three.
From 1975 to 1986, Erma joined the cast of Good Morning America and in 1988, she signed a contract with Harper & Row valued by publishing experts at $12 million. She was 61. .
