Dear Julia, I am inspired and look forward to reading your books.As a late in life author, with my only second-novel just released, I cannot help admire how prolific you are. Also, I am often drawn to Latinx writers or those who write about foreign countries especially those south of our US borders. Do you think "ageism exists in the publishing world today?" I'm finding it hard to even find an agent.
