• 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 Roz - and I may already know some of you from Pop-Up Submissions. I was one of the regular judges. I'm sad that the show is no more - I got such a buzz from the constructive and creative vibe. When Kate suggested I drop in here to see what goes on in daily Litopia, I didn't need to be asked twice.
Who am I? I'm a freelance developmental editor (with a book series, Nail Your Novel), a ghostwriter (not allowed to say who I've pretended to be), an author of 3 literary novels and a whimsical travel memoir, a blogger, a sometime radio presenter (a little show some years ago called So You Want To Be A Writer) and a horse rider (which is nothing to do with writing).
Hello Litopians!

Yay! Great to see you here! Loved your pop up critique - always so positively worded. I learnt a lot from it too. I write YA Fantasy and used to ride horses - cross country treks especially. Not got the dosh for horsey stuff at the mo.
Do come to a huddle. Do, do, do. :)
Hannah, when I can work out how to huddle.... I must!

Hi Roz,

Great to see you here. It's really very sad that the show is no more and I can only hope it's no coincidence that we were guest panelists on the final one. :)

If you need any help finding your way around just drop me a message.

This link might give you more insight on how it all works.
