• 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.

Congratulations! Well done! Did she ask for full MS?

Hi Em. No, she invited me to a second, longer contest, but she did say she wants to see more in her message. Unfortunately, the way it works is through a 3rd person so I couldn´t ask her anything. This longer contest is being held directly by her agency, so it´s certainly a way in!

I certainly do! Thank you so much. Just hearing back from an agent and getting such positive feedback dispels any feelings of doubt I had about my writing. Onward now!

After a 2 month wait, I get a letter back from an agent and she has nothing but good things to say about my text! She actually said ---she loved it!!! She loves my voice and my concept! She says it´s quirky and fresh! I´m over the moon!!
Now all I have to do is finish the damn thing!

Congratulations - I've got to believe that the response has given you plenty of incentive--and energy--to finish. Ready, set, go!
