• 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.

We've collaborated with local artists. You guys helped me edit my story, the only children's story in the anthology. My story is finished now, and is grandson approved. (Jamie, the older one in this picture, was the one who loved his toy train. He is eight now, but he liked my story. Remi, who's seven, wanted me to read the story twice!)
