• 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.

Pretty soon, Hypnos is going to be calling you to see if you have anything new, they can use for their next issue. Then you can be like,
