Live Literature part-funded sessions

Live Literature brings reading and writing to the heart of communities by funding author events for organisations across Scotland.

Why apply?

Live Literature makes author events affordable.

• The author is paid £210 plus expenses per session
• We cover £120 of the author’s fee, and all of their expenses, within set guidelines
• After the event takes place, Scottish Book Trust pays the author everything that they are owed directly
• Scottish Book Trust then invoices you for a set contribution of £90 plus VAT per session
• Events can take place in person or remotely, allowing you to be flexible when planning

Alongside financial support, the team at Scottish Book Trust can be on hand with help and advice for planning and promoting your session.
