• 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

    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.

Litopians! Rise up and congregate virtually! Summer writing conferences are on! Some are going ahead with their planned live formats, but in most cases organizers have figured out how to hold them virtually. One advantage to a virtual format is that you don't have to travel to get there, which means you can attend a conference anywhere. The other advantage is that, in many cases, the price to attend has dropped considerably.

I'll add to Erica's list. Not just a writing conference, but the World Science Fiction and Fantasy Convention (29 July - 2 Aug), originally scheduled for Wellington, New Zealand is now virtual. Sadly, we won't be able to host you all here, but we'll still be showcasing writers from Australasia, and you can join us from the comfort of your own laptop! I'll be doing a virtual session on insects (and other arthropods) in fiction. Visit CoNZealand for more info.
