This study examines extramural L2 writing practices of third-age (60+) EFL learners in community-based lifelong learning contexts in Istanbul, Türkiye. Using interview data from a purposeful subsample of 30 learners drawn from a larger profiling study (N=535), it explores multilingual genre repertories, modalities, and literacy trajectories, advancing a lifespan and socially situated perspective on L2 learning and L2 writing.
