• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

Hi all,

For anyone who's interested, the Greenhouse Prize is open to unpublished, unagented authors. Manuscript must have elements of humour, and can be anything from a picture book up to YA. There is no entry fee.

Full details here

I just sent off my submission. Good luck to anyone else who submits!

Has anyone entered this competition before, if so, how was the experience?
