• 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.

A change of plan - Pop-Up Submissions will run for the next two Sundays (28th Jan, 4th Feb). The following Sunday (11th Feb) will be the start of our continuing thrust to bring out and develop your writing voice, a theme I want to focus on all year long. More details coming soon, but for now, please mark it in your diary.

Is this new idea also live audio/video, or a typed chat session? Being deaf, unless there is text of some kind I am unable to participate.
 
Richard, you can certainly participate in all our events via the Discord chatroom, which offers text, audio and video options.

Today, for Pop-Up Submissions, this is how it works:

* You can read the submissions at the same time as I do by watching the live Facebook feed;
* You can listen to my reactions to each submission on the same Facebook channel (depending on your degree of deafness, this may/may not be possible for you, perhaps earphones?)
* You can text chat to me and other Litopians in the Discord chat room.

Hope you can be there.

P.
