• 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.

Burning Books

Guest
The latest Burning Books episode, The Binding of Isaac by Omri Boehm has just been released.

This original series is produced by Litopia and hosted by Eric Beck Rubin. From recent débuts to classics, fiction to non-fiction, memoirs, philosophy, science, history and journalism... Burning Books separates the smoking from the singeworthy, looking at the pleasures (and pains) of reading, the craft of writing, the ideas that are at the heart of great novels as well as novels that try to be great… but don’t quite make it.

You can subscribe to the show through iTunes or any other podcast app, which will ensure you never miss an episode. More info about the show, and a full list of all back episodes, here.

Feel free to add your thoughts below.
 
This episode has been re-posted, there was a flaw in the original mp3 file.
"Burning Books" will introduce you to a wider world of literature than you might normally be exposed to. Each show is quite short, and very easy listening.
Next series will kick off in a few weeks', meantime all the past shows are available on the podcast feed. If you're not sure how to listen to podcasts, some info here: How to Listen
