What's the story behind Blogging Woolf?
What’s the story behind Blogging Woolf?
More than thirteen years after starting Blogging Woolf, I realized that several important components were missing. First off, the blog was missing an “About” page, a rationale for how and why the blog came to be. So I have added one. I introduce it here.

Spending the 4th of July with Virginia Woolf
Not everyone can say they spent the 4th of July with Virginia Woolf. But Kathleen Donnelly and I can.
