WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR?

My friend Marylu Downing promised herself in her 40s that in her 50s she would become a professional artist. It gave her something to look forward to, rather than dreading that milestone birthday. And she did it. Among her painting subjects are luscious, fanciful women who look like they have a past and are not stopping now.

On my Juicy Tomatoes radio show I talked to four women over 50 who act, paint, write and contribute their own kind of magic. One followed her muse that got her to leave California and move to the high desert in Utah where she started writing mystery novels and fell in love.
One acts and writes and feeds her passion by taking assorted jobs instead of slogging for years in a career.

Then there's Marylu whose art has brought her a national following.
And another who has been acting since high school and just told me that she's decided to write a one-woman play for herself.

Creative women don't stop.

Listen to some of my favorite creative types on my radio show which you can hear at my website http://www.juicytomatoes.com/
And tell me what magic you've been up to lately.

Susan
