• 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.

If you happened to be with us for last week’s live show, you’ll know that we had serious tech trouble throughout. I normally don’t edit it – the recording you see on Facebook or YouTube is exactly what happened live – but this time I had to spend hours knitting it all together. I think what came out was a remarkably coherent show under the circumstances - and an important one, since we had the benefit of having a major publisher as a special guest.

This Sunday, I haven’t booked another publisher, since I feel the tech needs to be put through its paces again. So you’ll have me, Litopian Ali Gardner, and another Litopian (not yet confirmed). We’re also in the run-up to Frankfurt, so it’s quite hard to get publishers to commit to anything other than prepping for the book fair at the moment.

The good news is that in a week or two we’ll be hosting another major publisher who is actually about to became an agent – the first time we’ve an agent on apart from me! This will be a a very useful show, I’m certain.

Anyway, do join me live this Sunday, please – and let’s hope the gremlins have been banished!
