By February 2020, within a month of beginning editing, the first full draft of edited pieces had been produced. Katy began type-setting using a font designed by an MA student, Kaja Slojewska, at the University of Reading (we felt that Woolf would approve of a female-authored font). By March, the book had been type-set and was ready for proof-reading.

The front and back covers of the book

At the same time, we had run into problems with our initial choice of book cover and we needed to find a replacement. A suggestion of a red poppy had been made for the cover image, this speaking to Woolf’s consistent reflections on the disaster of World War One in her writing. Zoe felt that a very gifted artist in the Department of English Literature, Georgia Courtney-Cox, may be able to help us.
