Meet Leitrim’s Rebel Priest-Author

Did you know Leitrim had its own literary legend? Rev. Canon Joseph Guinan wasn’t just a priest—he was a firebrand author who called out injustice, championed Irish pride, and wrote novels packed with drama, rebellion, and real-life grit. His stories, like “The Soggarth Aroon,” didn’t just entertain—they captured the soul of rural Ireland and weren’t shy about throwing shade at the landlords and British rule. No wonder the locals still remember him as their beloved Soggarth Aroon! #IrishHistory #Leitrim #BookTok #HiddenGems #IrishAuthors #Culture

Semicolon Wars: Vonnegut vs. Woolf 🤔

Semicolons are in serious decline, and it’s sparking a grammar fandom feud! Vonnegut famously dissed them, but Woolf, Dickens, and even Lincoln were obsessed. Now, a new study shows most UK students barely use them, while some authors (looking at you, EL James) get dragged for misusing commas instead. Is the semicolon truly dying, or is it making a comeback? Take the quiz and pick your side! #GrammarDebate #SemicolonDrama #VonnegutVsWoolf #BookTok #LiteraryControversy #Culture
