Also seeking human interest stories about people who have turned their lives around by "overcoming" hurdles in life- fighting a serious illness, battling addictions, going through a divorce after being married 30+ years, finding a new job or starting a business after 65, losing and keeping off weight (30+ lbs), living in a small retirement apartment after downsizing from a large home, exercising after age 50, etc.
For more information on how to get your name in print, email Larry Hayes: larry@activeover50.com. Now in our 10th year, ActiveOver50 is the #1 publication for boomers and seniors in the San Francisco Bay Area with over 200,000 readers in print and online. Visit us online at activeover50.com. |
