I'm excited to join the effort to restore and revitalize our liturgical inheritance. What a great time to be Catholic! Thanks for the opportunity to contribute.
I have some very interesting posts in the works . . . stay tuned, one and all!
Fr. Thomas Crean—how exciting! I know two people who just took one of his courses last semester, and I’ll be doing so myself at some point in my own program. I look forward to seeing what these wonderful traditional voices bring to T&S!
Dr Kwasniewski, I'm glad to tell you that there are more than 2 trad publications in the top 100. The WM Review wmreview.org is in the top 100 (it says 98, but there is a lag from yesterday when we were top 50). I saw Hilary White there too.
Shaw is a national treasure of the UK. His writing is lucid, tight, rigorous, and relevant (unlike many others who wave the banner of "relevancy" when they are yesterday's leftovers).
Thank you so much, Dr K. You have more than satisfied your promises to your subscribers . And we are all richer for it. I look forward to the expanded Substack! For bless your efforts most richly!
This is great news. It is encouraging to see the paid subscriber base grow. Very interested in reading articles from the four new contributors. The weekly roundup is still my favourite rabbit hole to go down once a week: I'd subscribe for that alone.
One prayer I have on my lips is that the new contributors will maintain harmony and charity in their work. To coin a phrase, even strictly within traditional circles, we are a broad church, and without the need to elaborate, it goes without saying that there have been and remain some tensions within traditionalism. Indeed the need for Michael Matt to trumpet the clarion cry of 'Unite The Clans', underpins the need for unity.
Amongst this readership, I imagine there are strong advocates for and against Ecclesia Dei communities, the SSPX, ++ Lefebvre, popular Independent Priests. They often differ on matters of liturgy, faith and morals to greater or lesser degrees.
Dr Kwasniewski has, in my mind at least, consistently provided content that not only educates and illuminates on a wide variety of subjects, but has been sensitive to the realities of the subscriber base and has managed, at the same time, to provide thought provoking analysis on the one hand, whilst maintaining both charity and unity on the other.
Not an easy task: we are all susceptible to our fancies and prejudices.

Welcome on board! I can't wait to publish your study of the traditional rite of marriage and why it's superior to the postconciliar replacement.

Thank you. Fr Thomas is a great theologian and a fine teacher. I've learned a lot from reading him and talking with him over the years.

Thank you, don't know how I managed to miss this!
Subscription renewed--keep up the good work.
Congratulations to you, Dr. K, and to the new authors on the expansion. I'm particularly excited to have more opportunities to read Dr. Shaw.
