• 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…

    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.

Hi all,

It's nice to see so many familiar faces.

What's new in my world? Well, let's call it turmoil but it may be settling down a bit. This has stalled the completion of my most recent novel for about as long as Litopia has been absent. I've been active in other areas due to financial demands and I am now considered an amateur geologist by many of my customers of fine minerals and gemstones. Recently, I've taken up cutting rough opal into gem quality pieces.

I have been editing for several authors over the last few years and I have been pleased with the published works. Soon, I should be back to writing the remainder of my current WIP, hopefully because the ich to write is always present.

My time is still being consumed by pressing matters, but I will check when time permits.

Smiles

Welcome back! I instantly have an Indie Jones image of you, scouring the world for opalescent pleasures... nice hat, too... ;)
 
Pick axe in one hand and pen in other, it is a wonderful world we struggle through.

Thanks for the welcomes.

Greetings and welcome. What are you writing about at the moment - can you tell us anything about your WIP?
 
Lovely to see you back. I remember you speaking about the turmoil so I'm so pleased that things are a bit more settled. Houses coming soon, it seems, so dust off your WIP.
 
Welcome back! Another more or less familiar face, good to see :D
