UK: 'Creative' freesheet for London

Posted by Cyril Gros on December 19, 2007 at 3:43 PM

A new kind of freesheet now circulates in central London. The Notes from the Underground doesn’t deliver any news but only short stories, poems and cartoons.

With about 100,000 copies delivered, the monthly paper aims to “provide a platform for emerging writers” and has invited the public to contribute to it.

Its publishing company, Notes from the Underground Unlimited, hopes the paper will be distributed twice a month starting in March.

The paper's editors, Tristan Summerscale, 22, and Chris Vernon, 23, came up with the idea of the "alternative freesheet" to promote creative writing.
