I hope they're not Russian spiders...
Welcome To The Oldest & Best Colony For Writers On The Net.

An army of spiders invaded Warminster overnight...
And this is the lost village of Imber, taken over by the MoD and only accessible a day a year. Rest of the time it's used for counter-insurgency training.
The bus stop at the end of the universe.
In other news… a little bird tells me a Litopian may have a television deal in the offing… no more deets at the moment (so don’t ask…) but I’m v happy for them...
We had several tech issues tonight, new show will be posted in a few minutes on YouTube, with a new link
In Wells today and tomorrow, suggestions welcome
Such a good Book Club tonight. Brilliant discussion, amazing insights from @Peyton Stafford - thank you everyone for making it memorable
Since there was no Huddle yesterday (next one is 15th July), I did something else instead...
Such a brilliant time today with everyone at Litfest, both physically and virtually. Too short! Feel so happy to have been there
There's a new scam in town and it's targeting writers who dream of having their work filmed… more about it here
Tell you what. These GIFs are rather good fun. Well done Agent Pete.
You now have GIFs. Use them wisely, oh Litopians
In other non-Dahl news... the big debate today is "Should Algorithms Control Nuke Codes?" I can't even see why the question: of course ChatGPT should decide when to terminate the conversation... and us...!
Happy palindromic Friday!
The new Colony server is not yet completely stable inasmuch as the IP address assigned to it seems to have come complete with its own DoS attacker. The Colony has already been down several times in the past few days while the attack has been mitigated.
I've been at it again with the Daily Express
I’m back It wasn't Covid, but it wasn’t nice, either. OK, that’s over with – now let’s make this a good year for all Litopians!
Apologies to everyone who’s sent me a PM recently, as you could tell from the last Pop-Ups of the year on Sunday, your faithful agent was a sick puppy… I’m on the mend and will be catching up with things soon…
Yesterday's Pop-Ups ended a trifle early... this is why
One of the weirder things about the interview I just did with the Express is that 3rd party websites have kind of lifted it, but warped it (why?). So one today says “These revelations have been brought to light by Literary agent Peter Cox, in her upcoming memoir”. WTF?
First technical test today for Pop-Ups went well. So looks like we’re on for this Sunday!
If you’ve sent me a message and I haven’t replied, it’s because I’m only just starting to get straight again Moving is traumatic!
The laughs I get here in the Colony are better than going to the Comedy Store in LA!
The epic scale of the move is all too clear. Yesterday saw me sitting by the M3 with 2 friendly Ethiopians, 3 dozen vegan fish and a van that kept on breaking down. If it sounds like something from a David Lynch movie, it was.
Spending a lot of time travelling between London and Warminster atm, prior to move. Snapped this yesterday morning from coach.
