Hear hear. Well anyway let us get on with it - I'll hear you out anon, what do you have to say

Don't be a dumbass. Plenty of writers have published their works, from antiquity to modern times, before the age of 30 or 40. Aristophanes at 18 had one of his plays published at the fucking City Dionysia.

I should have clarified works not just published, but respected, popular, etc

You will receive no respect for aging, advanced age will allow you no automatic command, not in these days, not in this place.
Only when your words echoes powerfully in hearts and minds, only then you are greater. It's true, you need experience and catharsis for inner substance but the gifted soul does not perhaps require long years of this to rise above the dreg of the masses.

Read Colin Wilson's The Outsider, published at age 24.
An amazing book on alienation in society that rightfully was a huge success, showing how immensely wide-read Wilson was in his youth.

which he followed up with masterworks such as "The Space Vampires"
