• 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 ran across this blog today--The Writer's Guide to Weapons. I suspect the crime writers here already know about this one, but it was new to me. The guy's obviously a bit of an odd bat (selling coffee and writing gloves alongside his books...), but the info is good (I suppose, though to be fair, I've got no idea if he's just making it all up. He was a crime journalist though, so there is that.)
