When Martha Stephens loses her husband, the life she built around family and career crumbles overnight. Retired, she struggles to define who she is without the roles that once anchored her. Her daughter, Sarah, believes Martha is incapable of managing on her own—and pushes for decisions Martha isn't ready to make. Their conflict deepens, until a chance encounter with a fellow writer introduces her to the healing power of storytelling.

As she learns the craft, Martha discovers writing helps her navigate grief and opens the door to new friendships and purpose. Her journey mirrors the possibilities awaiting anyone willing to pick up a pen later in life.

THE SECOND CHAPTER is uniquely structured in two parts: Martha's inspiring fable demonstrates the transformative power of writing in retirement, followed by a comprehensive guidebook offering practical steps, real-life case studies, and actionable advice for aspiring retirement writers. Kenyon J. Blunt has created both a moving story and an essential resource for reinventing yourself through creativity in your golden years.
