• 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.

“All good writing is swimming under water and holding your breath, hoping what you're doing might end up everything you're hoping it to be once you reach the surface. Writing a short story, or a novel even, is basically like diving deep into the ocean and not coming up for air until you reach THE END."

F. Scott Fitzgerald
