• 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.

Thank you for the kind words :) It's largely a stamina and numbers game, all this, for sure. If I draw negative cards I still go for a suitable looking sub 8/10; destiny is for a hard pushing sometimes. Same for all of us. Then you've all the people coming out of paid creative writing courses with guest agents brought in. And the already famous people who then decide to write a novel as well, and they are going to sell, whether it's good or bad or mediocre. No wonder agents get snow blind and want safe bets. Over supply, and we all know scum as well as cream gets to sit on top.

We must just do as we feel. The Muse must continue to rule for its own sake, or there'd be no soul in Culture.
