• 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.

Thanks Kate. I'm really looking forward to working with Cindy to make Secret of Heathcote Manor the best it can be.
