• 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.

After much faffing and fiddlestuff, @Aethalope and I are proud to present the first episode of our new podcast:

Two Wayward Writers
From Borneo's ancient rainforest to the windswept beaches of the English coast, Laura and Rachel are writers on a journey, but they’re not sticking to the path. Join them on their wayward ramble through the narrative arts with nothing but a capricious compass and occasional guests along the way.

We've even got a theme tune!

Listened yesterday. Great job. You compliment one another really well and deliver a fun, chatty, friendly and upbeat 10 mins.

Best of luck with it. Joe Rogan is now watching his rearview mirror very closely.
 
I know! Who are all these people who want to listen to us wittering on?

Btw, is there a way to see where they are listening? I can see numbers of listeners on YouTube but not the others.
It’s a pretty darn good start, especially from cold!

We don’t have any granular listener data at the moment, it’s simply not something we thought about including in V1 code. Your dashboard currently shows total listeners, we can't break it down.

However, we could do that in V2, so if you’d like it, put in a feature request.

NB – it’s worth pointing out that YouTube listeners aren’t counted in your dashboard stats because the file isn’t served from Litopia, so whatever YouTube is saying should be added to your dashboard display.

I'm utterly amazed at the numbers in less than a week.

We're aiming for fortnightly between the two podcasts, recording the first episode of Two Wayward Writers South this Sunday to post during the week. Then, two weeks later, North will be back with our first very special guest author.
