Irish blogger gets book deal

‘Twenty Major’, an infamous Irish blogger, has received a two-book deal with publisher Hodder Headline.

Major who recently won 'Best Blog' and 'Most Humorous Post' at the Irish Blog Awards is best known for not holding back on strong views and regular use of the swear word ‘cunt’.

The story was broke by Irish Times journalist Sinéad Gleeson on her blog at sineadgleeson.com. (With thanks to mulley.net for the tip)

Clarification: A photograph of Twenty Major accepting an award at the Irish Blog Awards was added to this post shortly after the story was first published. This image has been removed on a request of the blogger in question. It was judged that the blogger’s right to privacy is greater then any current journalist reasons for keeping the photograph online.
