Seriously though I think at the time the whole inner fan fiction circle were all older (late 20's, early 30's) so obviously their characters respresented that. It was really hard at that time for a younger author to gain a lot of popularity (at least it sure seemed that way at the time) I'm really glad its not like that today. Now I feel like there are a good representation of ages in the inner fan fic circe (which I like to consider is all of us LOL)

??? Thats so weird that you've mentioned that because I just read one that involved Nick and AJ marrying women twice their age!!! it wasn't too bad for a story, had a lot of depth behind it , i thought anyways lol.

I'm glad it's not like that anymore. Some of my favorite authors are older, but there are also a lot of talented writers who are teenagers. You can't discount anyone because of their age. I ask for ages when people submit stories for me to host, and trust me, I've seen 16-year-olds who are good enough to be published and people close to 30 who can barely string a coherent sentence together.

Don't get me started on the thirty-year-olds that cant string a sentence together...
