• 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,

I am a Salesforce geek by day and an SFF author by night. I am currently on garden leave, following redundancy with a new job lined up for September 30th. So I am at home pretending to be a real writer. I am actually trying to be stepehn King. Wrting all morning, going for a long stroll then reading all afternoon.
So far I have been ten days on Garden leave and I have not managed this once.

This morning, I spent querying the new novel. And I found Pete on Query Tracker, and I have just watched live subs and I am totally hooked.
Is this really live? Every Saturday? Why did I not know this?
But we can only comment if we have a membership?
I will tune in next time, but I think this is great.
 
Welcome Sally. Anyone can join the chat room on Sunday and participate, you do not need to be a member.
 
Hi Sally, you should try this month's flash club, it's SFF. Right up your alley. You only need to have joined Litopea (as you have) in order to join in the Live Chat. Good luck with the Stephen King discipline :)

Do we not look as if we’re doing it live? :) Is it my Max Headroom-esque style?(*)

Yes, it is indeed live… but on Sundays, not Saturdays. Join us this week if you can. It looks as if we may be doing a Litopia Huddle (poss name change) montlhy on Saturdays.

(*) My mate Andrew used to control Max Headroom, he’s got some stories to tell...
