• 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.

Hello!

Thought I'd pop in and introduce myself, after missing this area of the forum earlier!

I am an aspiring fantasy writer with bookshelves full of Tolkien, Ian Irvine, Philip Pullman etc. I'm also a fan of classics such as The Count of Monte Cristo.

As a pizzaholic and red wine enthusiast, I would be well placed somewhere in Southern Italy... but I'll make due with the South West of England for now.

I have uploaded a piece of work to Litopia and received some very useful feedback. Unfortunately, in trying to delete the first draft, I deleted the entire post. So if anyone knows how to restore a deleted thread, please let me know! :)
 
Welcome @John G . Hope you enjoy Litopia.

It’s extremely friendly here so do feel free to get involved as soon as you’re ready.

Here's a good place to check out (How-to guide) to see a lot of what goes on in the colony.

If anything is unclear please contact me and I’ll be happy to assist if I can.
 
Welcome. What's your favourite pizza topping? (I never thought I'd ask anyone that question.) Mine is tomato, basil, porcini mushrooms and prosciutto.

Hi Barbara!

I'm a purest. A slightly spicy tomato base, mozerella cheese and black olives

The pizza oven is out tonight!
