• 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 reviewed the last book I read on Kindle. Gave it three out of five stars, so hardly slating it. I pointed out that it was full of typos and errors. The writer flagged it as offensive and it got hidden. There were a few other reviews, all five stars, by people who had only written the one review. I don't trust reviews on Kindle any more.

Whenever I'm looking for a new book or product, i always read the one star reviews. They tend to be more honest.

It is too easy to get a mates to leave good reviews. Here, maybe this will make you feel better.321414018_832387167866277_7140208637137456226_n.jpg
