• 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.

I'm new here and I'm looking forward to poking around under the hood and meeting other writers of historical fiction. I've just completed a novel that takes place between rural Ontario and the University of Toronto during the Great Depression and WWII. Would love to chat with other writers within this genre about how to get it sold! Thanks

You're in the right place. The colony will help you do that.
 
Welcome Cathi... best place for feedback is Litopia
 
Hello Cathi, a welcome to Litopia. I have only joined Litopia in the last few months. I quite like historical fiction, so would be happy to comment on your great depression and WW2 story. Good luck on your writing. Best wishes Paul
 
A belated welcome to the colony, @Cathi Bond

Nice to have you here. Hope you enjoy Litopia and do get involved as soon as you’re ready to.

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

If anything is unclear do please contact me and I’ll be happy to assist if I can.
