Writers know that it's not always about one big moment. It's about a series of smaller moments linked together as a narrative, both dramatic and subtle plot points which form an arc and move a story forward, so when the reader reaches The End, she looks back and says, "Ah, now I get it." We also know how momentous it is to find your "voice" and how important that voice is to a writer's life and process. Author George Eliot said, "It's never too late to be what you might have been," so I guess you can call this a "coming of middle age" tale. Carol Dowd-Forte is an alumna of Nova Southeastern University, a writer, editor, and President of A Girl's Gotta Eat: Writing and Editing for a Price.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
