• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

    This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.

    Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…

    • Don't give offence
    • Don't take offence

    We now allow political discussion, but strongly suggest it takes place in the Steam Room, which is a private sub-forum within Café Life. It’s only accessible to Full Members.

Hey Phil, I really liked your submission yesterday. You have a strong voice. Unfortunatly I had to go due to other commitments and hence missed the end. Keep at it. You could even use the main character in other novels.
Thanks Barbara. I do have a plan to make another couple of novels with the character should the first one be picked up. Thanks for the kind words.
 
@PMBligh
Keep at it and take all of Pete's advice on board.
You got him interested that's something.
A very strong submission overall :)

Just to add to the love, really enjoyed your submission. In a few places it actually put me in mind of A Confederacy of Dunces, which as one of my all time favourite books, is about as a high a compliment as I can pay!

Thank you very much! I'd never even heard of that book but I'll look it up now.

Hello Phil, welcome to the Colony. I haven't listened to yesterday's pop-up yet, but will soon. I'm looking forward to learning about your novel #2
