• 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 @SarahC, it's the first time I've known of your existence on Litopia. Welcome. Why not join us in one of our Saturday Huddles and we can get to know you better on a face to face basis- in real flesh and blood. ;)
 

Found this on the old procrastination station (internet), thought it was worth a share.
I went for it last year – and got absolutely nowhere.

I think that's the case with this kind of thing. The agents are still looking for something that'll fit their wish list. No matter how good your piece of work is, if you're not one of those you won't get anywhere.
