Hello!
Welcome to Litopia Writers' Colony…
...one of the web's oldest and most significant independent writing communities.
The Colony - as we call it - is a very special place. It is both a vibrant literary salon and a sweatshop. You can trade bon mots here over morning coffee, and hone your manuscript in the afternoon.
The Colony is currently divided into 27 different areas of activity, encompassing pretty much every aspect of the writer's life. And we're constantly growing - the podcast being our most recent progeny.
Above all, we're most proud of our strong collegiate atmosphere. As you'll quickly discover, the Colony has an enormously distinctive and friendly ambience. This is a place where talent can be incubated, friendships forged, and careers ignited.

Not content with creating an ingenious, adrenaline-pumping adventure – and setting kids’ eyes a-popping with THAT cool orange cover – Litopia colonist MG Harris is celebrating having this year’s best-selling UK fiction debut for the children and young adult market.
The Joshua Files - Invisible City
“I've been delighted with the response to Invisible City - from reviewers, booksellers and best of all, young readers,” said MG. “It's exciting to think that children all over the world will soon be following Josh's adventures. On my current UK book tour the questions I'm most asked are 'when is the sequel coming out - and what colour will the cover be?' Ice Shock will be published in March 2009 – probably with a neon green cover.#
Invisible City features 13-year-old Josh, whose father is reported dead in an air crash in Mexico. Was it an accident? And why was the plane miles off course? Josh sets off to unearth the truth and finds himself in the Mexican jungle, with a hit man on his trail, a legendary Mayan book to find, and a world to save.
You can find out more about MG, Josh and the Invisible City at www.mgharris.net and www.thejoshuafiles.com
