‘Throwaway Lines’ at Free the Word Centre

Andy Hayes, who attended ‘Writing Short Stories’ in 2011, came up with the idea of gathering abandoned lists, crumpled doodles, binned post-it notes –  scraps of text that would normally be viewed as litter – and using these a prompts for pieces of creative writing. After talking to other members of  writers’ collective 26, the project Throwaway Lines was born.

Now the work has moved into a new, three-dimensional phase. 15 top designers have been brought in to create frames for the scraps that inspired the pieces of writing. The results will be on display from October 29 onwards at the Free the Word Centre in Farringdon.
