After we reach age 50, we can look at our past knowing that we are not the same person we were 20 years ago, only 20 years older. We are wiser, possessing greater knowledge and making better life choices. Now is the time to set aside our culture's aging stereotypes that are often based in fear, isolation and personal diminishment. It is time to embrace the second half of life with optimism, passion, humor, creativity and wisdom. No generation in history has had this rich opportunity. Barb Warner relates personal stories that have led her to celebrate the first half of life and of the wisdom that those experiences have brought to the second half. Among the life experiences that she includes are change, creativity, life stories, gratitude and resilience. She hopes that this book brings to light ideas that will help all her readers discover their own genuine value and to explore their beliefs about the power they have to create magic in the second half of life. Now in her seventies, Barb is continuing to learn from her own life experiences. Her goal is to help others in the second half of life do the same and see where they have made courageous life choices. She hopes that you will join her in mining your experiences and harvesting the wisdom, courage and knowledge that is now yours. This has the potential to be a new exciting chapter in your life. Barb lives in Aurora, Colorado with her daughter, her daughter's partner and their three dogs. Barb Warner is a great guide on the passion trail. She has mined her own life for its precious jewels and hands them out chapter by chapter in her new book. If you're wondering what to do with the rest of your life, you're sure to find some clues in Keep Your Fork-Dessert Is on the Way.

About the Author:
In her earlier years Barb Warner had pretty good ideas as to what the next chapter in life would be like. There was high school and then college at Michigan State University. She then spent three years in the Peace Corps in Turkey working with a child care program. After returning to the United States she lived three years in San Francisco and spent weekends supporting civil rights initiatives, anti war sentiments and later the woman’s movement. In 1970 she moved to Denver, got married and gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. At that time she received a master’s degree in Guidance and Counseling from Antioch University and a certification in Gerontology at the University of Denver. In the several decades that followed she went searching for a profession that would make her heart sing. Although that was only intermittently successful, she enjoyed raising her daughter, learned to love the Rocky Mountains, hiked down the Grand Canyon and enjoyed a couple of awesome European vacations with friends. Now in her seventies, Barb has found her heart singing as she writes her book and blogs and has the opportunity to speak to groups who want to hear how they too can maximize the potential of the second half of life and harvest the wisdom, courage and knowledge that is now theirs
