How You Can Help
This project is a labour of love, and like any good story, it’s better when more voices are part of it.
We created this site to celebrate authors connected to County Leitrim and bring more attention to their stories. There are lots of simple, meaningful ways you can support that mission — whether you have a name to suggest, a photo or news clipping, or just a few minutes to share the site with a friend.
Help Us Fill in the Faces
Some of the author profiles on our site are missing a portrait. If you happen to have a photo, even an old one clipped from a paper or scanned from a family album, we’d be honored to include it (with credit, of course).
Please send us a note via the Contact Us page if you can help!
Suggest an Author or a Missing Work
Know of a Leitrim-connected author we haven’t featured yet? Spotted a book that should be listed but isn’t? We’re always looking to fill in the gaps.
Head over to our Contact Us page and let us know what we’re missing. Even small tips can lead to big discoveries.
Feature Your Writing on Leitrim Voices
Are you an author with a newly published book, an upcoming release, or fresh creative writing inspired by Leitrim? Leitrim Voices is our dedicated promotional platform to celebrate contemporary writing, support emerging voices, and show readers what’s brand new in Leitrim literature.
Whether you would like to showcase a preview chapter of an upcoming book, an essay, or a poem, we’d be delighted to share your work with our community. Explore current pieces and submission guidelines on our Leitrim Voices page, or send us your submission directly!
Send Us Clippings or Articles
Sometimes a single newspaper clipping or handwritten program tells a story you won’t find anywhere else. If you’ve saved an article, parish newsletter, or something tucked away in an old drawer that mentions a Leitrim author — please consider sharing it with us.
Scans or photos are perfectly fine and preferred.
Share Community Events
If you’re organizing a book launch, author reading, book fair, writing workshop, or any literary event connected to Leitrim — let us know! We’d be glad to feature it on our Community page and help spread the word.
Share event info, links, and images through the Contact Us form, and we’ll take it from there.
Spread the Word
If you believe in this project, one of the best ways to help is to share it.
Post a link on social media. Mention it to your local librarian, bookshop, or heritage group. Forward it to a friend who loves Irish literature. The more people who know about Leitrim’s literary legacy, the more lasting it becomes.
And if you’re on Facebook, we’d really appreciate your support with a like and follow.
Thank You 💚
This site is built from the ground up with love, time, and a deep respect for storytelling. But we couldn’t do it without your help.
To everyone who sends a name, shares a photo, spreads the word, or cheers us on — thank you. You’re part of the story too.
