• 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.

Hi all,

I am the writer of 'Decorum' and I wanted to let you know I am indeed on Litopia!

I wanted to thank Peter (and the other commenters) for your kind words about Decorum. I have made notes on the video and hope to improve based on these.

Also, I love the term 'futuristic rococo'! :D

From Emma :)
 
I saw your book on the pop up submissions video and it looked promising. I just got back from an internet-free holiday and if I had seen your book in the pile of books people were exchanging at the hotel, it would've been my first choice.

Thank you so much! I am currently looking for some advice on the manuscript so if you have any thoughts, please let me know :)
 
Hi Emma, welcome to the Colony! Once you've been here for a week and have posted 20 times, you can access the writing groups, where you can invite members to critique your work. I'm sure there you'll find all the feedback you need. :)
 
Welcome to the Colony; we've all had our rabies shots--so even if we bite, it won't be the end.
