Special Author Patron Pricing for an Extraordinary Time: All Author Sponsorships $500
The pivot to an online festival means our usual travel and accommodation expenses have been eliminated this year. We are still honouring our standard author fees, however, and with all of our events free this year, our Author Patron program is a vital part of the mix that puts authors on the stage. Author Patrons are part of the WritersFest family – and we’ve plenty of treats for you!
As an Author Patron, you, your friends, your Book Club, group, team or business can help bring outstanding literary figures to our stage from around the world.
You can also support Kingston WritersFest as a BookLover Donor, or a Corporate Sponsor. Interested?
