Sixty, Still Ticking and Fabulous is a compilation of sixty essays written over the course of sixty weeks, which the author shared on a blog. Having completed that project, she decided to compile those essays in their entirety in this book. Her inspiration was turning sixty, a major milestone for most women, which, in her case, coincided with becoming newly single. The book's topics range from personal experiences to wisdom gained from age and dealing with what life throws our way, both good and bad. She wanted to find humor in all of life's moments-especially the annoying ones-and to show that there are at least sixty reasons why at sixty we can still be ticking and fabulous. She hopes that her lessons learned, observations, and experiences will be helpful as well as entertaining to fabulous women of all ages.
