Dear Leslie and all--<br>
<br>
I once taught a freshman seminar on Woolf in which we studied the Hogarth Press's doings and the head of our Special Collections Library taught the students to print on the library's hand press. A favorite with the class was the "No need to hurry. No need to sparkle. No need to be anybody but oneself" from A Room of One's Own.<br>
<br>
Have fun,<br>
Christine<br>

Hello all, I'm designing a letterpress poster of Woolf's most beloved questions and wanted to open up my selection to the listserve.<br>
<br>
Please send me questions from any of her works! I hope to have the broadside ready for the VW conference in British Columbia in June.<br>
<br>
Looking forward to the avalanche of queries! <br>
