• 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 use Twitter, you might find this a useful tweeter to follow.

If you don't, well, it's not the be all and end all of your market research (AgentP's site says he hopes to find a big, international thriller; pass the word if you know anyone who's written one and is looking about) but maybe have a read of the article anyway.

I'm afraid even after having twitter (and my facebook page is linked to it), I can't understand the point of something that limits you to a mere two lines? Not something that seems practical to me, and I have enough to do anyway. If someone can get something useful out of that, good for them. Clearly they have more patience than little ol' me lol ;-)
 
U can cheat w links. Twitter can provide leverage within 140 but it took me a while to experience that. When I first tweeted it was re: Tarot. Agents tweet, and publishers, and they tweet zeitgeist and submission opps. An agent might tweet they are currently building their list, actively looking for such and such a type of story while others might say, maxed, not open to subs at this time.
