• 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…

    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.

Hello, writers. Do you use submittable to submit your writing and enter writing contests? I am enjoying using it and especially its DISCOVER feature. It helps me track what I have submitted, as well. And I do love seeing that green "accepted" status pop up rarely, but sometimes. (MANY MORE DECLINED statuses.)

If not, what do you use? Thanks. Laura

I noticed a lot of agents/agencies use it but I didn't sign up for an account. I suppose I should take a look. Thanks!
 
As an alternative to Submittable there's a free version of software called Airtable.

Airtable: Organize anything you can imagine

I'm in the process of creating an account with it, as I only found out about the programme this morning, after seeing it recommended in an article written by the founder of the RO Literary agency.

Publishing 101 | Marketing – RO Literary – Medium

I'll report back on how well it works. As the jokey adage from the 20th-century used to go, "I must get organanised!"
