She polishes the last of the glasses, hung in neat little rows over the bar. Checks the bottles lined up behind her, hundreds of them in all shapes, sizes, and planet of origin. Makes sure the taps are fresh and ready to go, and that the blood warmer is set to body temperature (cuz those pesky Vamps hate cold blood).

She looks at the clocks on the wall, set to every time zone (plus a few of the most well-traveled planets and alternate realities). Almost time to open.

Plenty of places to sit. Plenty of food to share. She hopes that all writers of Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Spec Fic (plus anyone else who happens to swing by from time to time) feels at home. Able to let their hair down, talk about their day, and just chill. Support each other.


A bell dings. Opening Time!

So there ya have it, folks! YA has their Random Musings thread. TIO has the Landfill. They've got Sunshine Cafe's and Comedy Cabaret's, but now there's....um....this new little unnamed corner of the world.

The "must pertain to the writing of SF/F" rule doesn't apply here. It's a place for folks to be folks. Chat about your WIP, your awful day at work, how much you want a light saber of your very own. I may occasionally merge OT threads here, but for the most part, it's a safe haven for Off Topic conversation.

As for the name, I'm taking suggestions. And then there will be a poll. So far, we've got:

QUARK'S BAR
CALLAHAN'S CROSSTIME SALOON
COWBOY FENG'S SPACE BAR & GRILL
TEN-FORWARD
MOS EISLEY CANTINA

Adding:
The Prancing Pony
C.H.A.O.S. - Cantina for the Haven of Aliens and Other Species
Chaos Alternate Parallel Future Spec World. CAPFSW
The Black Hole
The Restaurant at The End of [The Universe] [Cyberspace] [The Interwebs] [The Internets]
Fred
Ten-Backward
Ten-Posterior
Al Gore's House
Al Gore's alternative prancing posterior at the end of the black hole
Light Sabers & Magic Wands
Universal Planet
Planet Universal
Far Far Away
Once Upon A SFF
42
Portal 42, Destination Earth
ETA: Estimated Time of Arrival
Munden's Bar
The Bar
Watering Hole
Millenium Falcon
Centurion Hawk
Morley's
The Time Lords' Pub
The Mended Drum
Biers
C.H.A.O.S. Tavern



Mix and match 'em, or come up with something new. Let's give this new hangout a name!

Happy Holidays, folks.
The time to trim the Cantina is long past. Please continue here.
:)

As I said, I'm a complete noob at doing this. Previous thread is here.

Hey, what happened? I was saving some small change, cracker crumbs, pens without caps, and Cthulhian brain-eating goo under the cushions of the old Cantina sofa. Man, don't tell me I have to start all over...

Heeeeey! Check it out: the booths are made of fine, Corinthian leather!

Yeah, the upgrade was worth it.

When did you go straight to 75 there, Fen? I think you skipped a few decades inbetween, too.

On the plus side, at your new age you should be able to just retire.

:D

Turn my head for a few hours and you guys burned down the old cantina? Where am I supposed to make sacrifice to the Old Ones now?

Check out the cellar.

The contractors were really looking out for us with this place!

...okay...what did you guys do? I turn away for a moment and notice a previously stickied thread is no longer stickied and there's this new one in place.

Someone got in trouble...didn't they....
