• 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

    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.

When? Wednesday 17 April 8pm BST.
We are four authors from Vine Leaves Press, giving readings from our work. I've never done an online reading, so this is a new adventure.
There's a novel about Charles Dickens by Alan Humm, there's a creepy metaphysical novel by Annalisa Crawford, and a novel by Janet Clare that will be a surprise to us all.
I'm reading from my travel memoir Not Quite Lost.
The event is in Zoom - email VineLeavesEvening@gmail.com to register.
How much? Free, or optional donation.

I was fortunate enough to attend and cannot say enough about Roz and the others at the Zoom meeting. I signed up for Vine Leaves' newsletter and look forward to following Roz and the other authors. Brilliant, @Roz Morris.
Lucky you, Peyton! I wanted to attend but I screwed up, thinking I'd not received an email with a link, though I'd emailed as instructed--only to discover now that I did receive one but on my Martta Karol (pen name) email account--I don't know why I emailed Vine Leaves Press from that email account, which I don't often use--and I was looking for it on my personal email account. Dummy. It sounds like it was a great reading. I used to go to tons of local Portland readings. Loved doing so. It's one of my favorite things to do, but now, with my disability and health issues, I'm not doing so any longer.

I'm so sorry I missed this, @Roz Morris. Perhaps there will be another reading? Maybe from your novel?

--Carol
