• 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.

Can Bradbury and Stephen King be wrong?

"Frankly, there isn't anyone you couldn't learn to love once you've heard their story." A great quote from Andrew Stanton. One to bear in mind, always.

and

"Drama is anticipation mingled with uncertainty."

(I can't believe he showed only 5 seconds of Nemo and already the tears come to my eyes. I love Pixar movies.)
 
"The water is stiff!"

I hereby reclaim all the innocent words which have been twisted to hold sexual connotations...stiff, toss, screw, slam, and all the rest.

Thanks for sharing, PJ. I've been in a bit of a slump and needed that. Stanton's story about needing blood transfusions to survive when he was born prematurely hit me. I went through the same thing. It took me a long time to realise that my first passion (storytelling) was the only thing I was really good at, and though I failed at everything else, those blood donors did not donate in vain.
