I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

LITRO is a free bi-weekly publication, distributed near to London Underground stations (Stockwell always, and a selection of: Liverpool St, Camden Town, Earls Court, High Street Ken, Hampstead, and more TBC), which features one piece of original fiction every other Friday. It is published in the UK in association with Ocean Media (funded by advertising), and elsewhere around the world by individual distributors.
The aim is to publish great short fiction which will appeal to someone who is on their way to work.
If you miss out on your copy, all previous issues are available to read at www.litro.co.uk .
eLITRO will get you a shiny new story sent to your eco-friendly inbox every other Friday afternoon. To sign up, go to www.litro.co.uk/elitro.php
PDF editions of LITRO are now available for download. If you can’t pick up a physical copy, you can print it out yourself to read on the Underground (or wherever else you might fancy some fiction action). You need never suffer commuter boredom again!So now, anyone with a printer and an internet connection can help distribute LITRO and spread some good fiction around, giving yourself untold good karma.
If you are interested in submitting your work, sponsoring the production costs of an issue, becoming one of our small army of distributors, or have any other comments, please see www.litro.co.uk or email us on [email protected].
