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 did try that, but it’s really one story. To cut it in half, I’d have to find a satisfying ending for the first book, which means changing the story a lot. I guess it’s an option to rejig it all, but ugh. In any case, doesn’t hurt to try to cut what I can with it as is. I can always decide to rewrite it as 2 books after. But no idea how I’d do that right now.
If you can hook the reader with the first half, you can sell the 2nd half. . Give the first half free -make them pay for the ending? remember Dune was serialised in a magazine first,
This is what I’m trying with Royal Road. See if readers stick around.
