• 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…

Hi all,

Over Christmas I've essentially almost finished (I'm a chapter away, so could finish it tonight) my latest draft. I've cut out the chaff (there was a lot) and got it down to under 80k words, which I read was ideal for a debut book.

If anyone is interested in adult sci-fi then I'll be posting some of it on here soon for other authors to have a read of - any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Nick
