• 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.

From time to time we need to reorganise the forums here to make things simpler and clearer for new members and also to help existing members navigate more easily between their topics.

Very soon, you’ll be seeing the results of the most recent reorganisation. I do hope you find it an easier, simpler and more logical layout.

The focus is very much on Café Life. This was our original forum and the place where people still spend much of their time. Café Life is now expanding to include the Welcome Forum, Self- Publishing, the Book Club, Poetry and the Marketplace. In each instance, there will be a new prefix for posts, corresponding to each area of interest: for example, the Book Club will have a special “Book Club” prefix, and so on.

As always, the latest threads of every type will appear at the top of each forum listing. Finding posts and threads relevant to a specific topic of interest will be simple, use the “Filter” at the top of the forum and select whichever prefix you want to see.

I hope you find this an easier and more interesting way to navigate our venerable gathering!

This work will take place over the next few days, so some temporary inconvenience / confusion may occur… apologies in advance. Will let you know when it’s complete.
