• 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 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.

So happy to have found you again!

For quite some time I mourned the loss of the old Litopia. The odd skirmish aside, it was such fun and I owed it a lot in terms of advice and new online friends.
Imagine my pleasure today when, idly browsing, I find that Lazarus-like, it's back!
Some of you may remember me as Red Dolphin, later Alex Buchanan, but I have thrown aside these foolish pseudonyms and emerge as the real me into the cold light of New Litopia.
It'll doubtless take me a while to find my way round this new layout but I hope to get stuck in once more. I've already seen with delight that the Flash Fiction is back. I think that was my favourite part previously.
Now to go and explore!

Well welcome back. The site seems to be growing, so there is plenty to see. Let us know what you write, we are always hungry for knowledge ;)
 
*Jumps up and down and waves* Hi there!! Welcome back!! :D
 
Hello Bernard. Nice to see you - and a flash fan, excellent. (*Makes note)
 
Hi Bernard - welcome aboard. Lovely to see another Original Litopian re-join the group. I'm still scribbling furiously from my little island in paradise...
