• 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.

I’m slowly overhauling many aspects of Litopia, first to be completed is the evergreen Flash Club, wonderfully stewarded by @Sea-shore and @Barbara.

I’ll let them explain how the new FC works in the coming days. But one decision we took – always subject to change if there’s a strong feeling about it – is to keep the FC entries and winners here inside the Colony. I did consider having an external area, rather like Pop-Up Winners, as a showcase for winning entries. However, we ultimately felt that might spoil the spontaneous nature of the contest itself – it’s supposed to be fun, after all – not something you slave over for hours because it might be publicly exhibited. Hope you enjoy :)
 
@AgentPete,
I think you've earned your cuppa today lol and it sounds fab. I can't wait to see what else is to come...
It gives me warm fuzzies, it does :):):):)
I think Litopia is a tool all writers should have.
