In a topic several of us were 60 or would soon be 60 as is by the way David Weber in his 60s, so using the poll function lets see how our ages fare. Might be interesting.

Change name from Honer to Honor. Oops!

You want physical age, or mental age? There's about a 30-year difference in me - I'll leave it to the reader to decide which is which. ;)

I was thinking physical. By the by if you also read the Safehold series I put a similar poll there and, please vote there too. Might be fun to see if there's a difference in the age of readers in the series. :D

My mental age would vary depending on who you talk to.

I consider myself to be a mature and well rounded individual, while other people (mostly my family) would barely consider me into double figures mentally.

Only 30? I always claim to be a 17-year-old trapped in a 70+-year-old body. (grin)

Cheers

I even got an answer from David Weber on the Safehold forum:

So using the poll function lets find out. Note if you read both series do the poll on both please. Should be interesting. By the by David Weber is in his early 60s.

Ahem. I am, in fact, 60, not in my "early 60s"! :lol:


Oops! Very early data shows Honoverse fans sightly older mode (answer with the most responses) being 30s in safehold but 40 in Honorverse, but we are in early days of getting data. 23 responses is just 1% of those on the forums who could respond.
