This woman, later in life, retired on a relatively, very-tiny boat. And she's extremely, extremely positive: http://janice142.com/

If I let the critic in me show (Janice would not) I would say while her writing is not perfect (who's is?) she more than makes up for it by bringing real joy to the reader's life.
