• 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.

It's almost time for Litopia's Novel Writing Month! If you're keen to join in this November, leave a comment below so I know to add you to the thread when the time rolls around.

How does it work?

1. Comment below to say you're want to join the event.
2. Tell us a bit about the project you're going to focus on for November.
(It can be any project, new or old)
3. Give us a word count goal you want to hit. (Going for the full 50k like the traditional NaNoWriMo? Or will you be happy to hit 30k like me? Or maybe you plan to write a piece of flash fiction each day—the choice is yours!)
4. Keep us updated on the official thread (this will be set up closer to the time). I'll also set up a tracking spreadsheet or Trackbear leaderboard so you can log your progress.
