• 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 have watched every single one of his lectures multiple times. I call him my professor. His thoughts about writers block are exactly on point for me.
 
I couldn't finish that one. Maybe I'll go back to it one day. I tend to watch him when I feel tapped out. Esp if my library holds are taking too long to come in.
