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…
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.

Interesting. And another damn definition of the word "blurb"! I'm presently reading a book for which I've been asked to do an ARC (advanced reader copy) review. Luckily, I'm enjoying the book, but now I'm imagining browsers thinking, "oh, if unknown Hannah whatsername says these glowing words about it, I'm definitely buying it." . . . I'd better hurry up and get famous!'A Plague on the Industry': Book Publishing's Broken Blurb System

An interesting read
