• 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, I've just submitted to pop up submissions so thought I'd join the community too. Just doing everything free for now.
I've recently finished writing the first draft of a sequel to my first novel and have now returned to querying with that first novel, having done more work on it based around what happens in the sequel. I'd love to hook an agent but also contemplating going down the self-pub route if that doesn't happen.

A very warm welcome to the colony, @Paul R

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.

Best of luck with your Pop-up sun too!
