Description
Steward & Croft describe several ways in which writing can enrich an older person's life, including journal-keeping, recording a memoir, & writing for publication. The authors further explain how writing can be therapeutic for grief or depression, a springboard for community involvement (beginning with letters to the editor), & a satisfying means of passing on a legacy of personal & family history.
