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

Hi all...just joined and looking forward to learning while conversing...I've three books on Amazon, one from a regional US press & two self-published & am trying to get an agent to bite on my most recent historical novel. This rejection thing is for the pits! With almost everyone going digital can't even, like in the old days, use the rejection slips to light the fire in my woodstove. Bummer.
