Writer Sara Davidson life was falling apart and she didn't know what to do.

I can't sell articles to magazines or books to publishers and I don't know how I'll earn money. ... During this same period, my lover of seven years, a cowboy artist I'd expected to spend the rest of my days with, rides off with no discussion. My children, who've occupied my first thoughts on waking and my last before falling asleep, are off at college. ...

When Susan Crandell walked away from her dream job as editor-in-chief of More magazine to become a freelance writer, she wondered if she would really find the better life she sought. Combining her newfound freedom and knowing that she wasn't the only middle aged person thinking about changing their life, she set off to investigate what she calls "life entrepreneurs" -- people who act on their vision of a "richer, fuller" future for themselves.

The result is "Thinking About Tomorrow," a look at forty-five people who reinvented themselves at midlife -- and the lessons they learned along the way.

In turn, Crandell learned a lot about what goes into a successful midlife makeover.
