I haven't seen too many writers get worse as they get older

David Eddings.

Isobelle Carmody (although this case may be limited to the Obernewtyn world in particular - I haven't read other recent works).

A notable non-exception is Terry Pratchett. His most recent works are still superior to his earliest despite Alzheimer's.
