• 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.

"Titles", anyone?

Really sorry for my absence, it’s been a torrid start to the year and I’m only just coming up for air.

Thinking about running another couple of seminars, the reaction to the last one was quite positive I felt.

It would make sense to consider “Titles” next. They can make or break a book. I have sold books to publishers purely on the strength of the title alone.

Any interest?

If so, what sort of time / day would be best? If there’s enough interest, we could repeat it, as we did last time, on different times/days.

Yes pls, and Sunday pm usually would work well for me, tho' can vary according to weekend obligations....Thank you
 
How long do you expect this one to be? I can make the first 45 min to an hour, but then I'll need to leave to take the kids to school (because that's Monday morning here, and the first day of the school year, in fact).
 
I don't think I will be able to do that afternoon as I will be travelling back to Switzerland, flight gets in at 18:45

I'll miss this - I'll be traveling, but I'll watch the video when I return.

Sunday after 2 works best for me, I would be thrilled to pick up helpful tidbits from you!
 
I will be interested in a "titles" seminar and this time I should be able to have a visual presence. The same time is fine for me, although it will be in the middle of the night over here.
