• 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.

Can’t believe we’re already at the end of the working week! But we are, so... time to remind you that we’re running another live session this Sunday (9th) starting at 4:30pm UK. Click here to convert time zones.

Do try to check out your microphone and headphones/speakers beforehand – the Mumble room is open 24/7, you just need another Litopian to help you do the fine tuning.

The focus will be (yes again - no apologies because it’s so important!) on the first page. By which, I also include titles. But all topics will be welcome, of course.

Do join us, especially if you haven’t made an appearance so far, it’s very friendly:)
 
I can't believe it is the end of the working week again either!

This Sunday I am attending a literary event in Sunderland (yes Pete we do have such events in Sunderland!). The literary agent Julia Churchill from the A.M. Heath Agency will be there, along with Catherine Richards who is Senior Editor at Pan Macmillan. Catherine Richards is interested primarily in crime fiction or commercial historical fiction - what a coincidence because I write crime fiction! So I will either have to give my apologies or, hopefully, perhaps arrive a little late for your meeting. I would hate to miss it but I am sure you will understand that it was unavoidable if I do.
