• 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.

Thanks. I write MG fantasy/adventure (dragons and stuff!) - anyone else here do anything similar? I was once a member of SCBWI (Society of Childrens Book Writers and Illustrators) but it was expensive and to be honest, I didn't feel I got value for money. (I still seem to be on the FB page though, so that's helpful!)
 
Hello Sue! Lovely to have you on board. I'm also a fantasy writer, so it'd be interesting to hear your thoughts
 
Hi Sue, welcome to the colony!

Yes, as @Rich. rightly says, I am also a writer of MG fantasy. My alternative world has been known to feature a dragon, as well as many of the other favourite tropes. I enjoy it all enormously. :-D
