Thank You For Calling the Lesbian Line

  • ELIZABETH LOVATT

In partnership with the author Olumide Popoola and Spread the Word I undertook a 3-month residency in two LGBTQ+ archives in London with an aim to producing a final piece of work in response to the material found in the archive. My final piece, 'Thank You For Calling the Lesbian Line' is a work of fiction based on call logs from the Lesbian Line, a volunteer-run phone service that operated in London.

You can read the full piece online here alongside work from fellow writers, Cecil Fenn and Liv Ouwehand.
