- Scottish Book Trust is all about promoting reading, writing and literature in Scotland. In this incredibly fast-moving technological world, we're convinced that writing and reading are more important than ever, and we want to help people discover that, from primary school kids to retired grannies. We organise book awards, author tours and talks, writing competitions and interactive online projects, and we supports writers with a range of projects including skills development and bursaries, funding literature events, book awards and promoting Scottish writing to over 10 million (yep, that many) people worldwide.

- ********THE BOOK THAT CHANGED MY LIFE ************
- DEADLINE FAST APPROACHING!
We want to know about a book that changed your life. We want you to tell us in up to 500 words about a book that changed your life in a large or small way. Whether it was a favourite childhood book that got you hooked on reading - like 'The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe' or 'The Hobbit' or a book that really shocked you like 'The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas' or '1984' - we want to know all about it. Post your story at http://www.scottishbooktrust.com/thebook by 1st December 2009 and your story could be published in a book in 2010! See your words in print! - Links
