Margot Livesey

Margot Livesey (born 1953) is a Scottish born writer. She is the author of six novels, numerous short stories, and essays on the craft of writing fiction.

Livesey came to North America during the 1970s where she worked to get her fiction published, reportedly because her (then) boyfriend was also a writer.

She currently lives in the Boston area and is the writer-in-residence at Emerson College.
