• 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…

    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 am the author of a new children’s novel based in a magical fantasy world. I’ve even been brave enough to submit my opening for discussion at the pop-up.
Here’s hoping 2018 is the year my whole will light up when I see it in print.

Thanks for your welcomes looking forward to sharing writing tips.
 
Hi Gully. Welcome. And I like that quote you added to your intro. I might just write that on a sticky note and put it on my fridge.

Good luck with the agent hunt. Remember, they’re out there and always looking for new talent.
 
Welcome aboard, Gully! Good luck with the agent search... why not approach publishers directly? We all want a traditional publishing deal, but it's an unrealistic expectation at this point. But, hey, you may be the next 'big' thing, so feel free to ignore me!
