• 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.

Feel Free to Steal. Mine is printed out and hangs close to where I write so I can see it.

As I am currently in bedouin state, I have no wall to hang it on. But i do have my iPad to save it on :)
Although, I much prefer the stable and traditional idea of writing in one location. My circumstances do not allow me that for now. :(
 
Love it thanks.
I have always been under the belief a book is a promise to you and your readers and it's the author's job to ensure that promise is fulfilled in every title. It is a promise of quality, being true to the characters within, and telling the story you want to, not because you want to make money, but because there is a story in you that needs to be told.
 
The writer I'm currently working with could definitely use this.

As I told him, don't write to be the next George R.R. Martin--write because you don't want to make it to your deathbed and regret not telling the story that only you could tell.
