• 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.

I won this a few years ago and was granted 15 minutes with a very charming agent. He asked for 10 k words from me but ended up leaving Creative Veritas the agency he was with and starting his own a week after. I fell through the cracks. Still I feel he is a good contact to have. Just to say I dont consider it a bad experience, but you'll get more time and attention from an agent here on Litopia if you join Huddle. It also is expensive unless you already wanted to go to the festival. With all those caveats...
