Founded in 1897, this trade union for fiction writers works to improve authors' professional and social position and promote literature in Finnish. It provides professional advice and represents writers on copyright and social policy matters.
Kirjailija magazine and a grant calendar for fiction writers provide information on the profession and funding. The union advises on authors' contract terms and administers author-related agreements. Supporting membership is available alongside membership for writers. Bequests are accepted to support writing in Finnish.
