Well, November was a blur! How did you get on with our #buddyread
Modern Fiction was first published in 1919 as Modern Novels. It was later published in her collection of essays The Common Reader - Vol 1.

Did you agree with her push for a more subjective, less materialistic firm of storytelling?

I read the short essay Modern Fiction by Virginia Woolf for the #VirginiaBloomsberries - The only book of hers I‘ve read so far is Mrs. Dalloway, so I‘m looking forward to reading more of her books. This essay talks about modern writers versus the classics and how modern writers should focus on writing what they want versus what is expected of them.

This was an amazing discovery. I‘m always in awe of writers who not only create works in different forms but can also do translations. From what I have discovered in other books, I‘m thinking Dante was not easy to translate.

I know poetry and prose are always talked about separately but to me they always feel like one. Like many #writers this also shows Woolf's work. #PoetryMatters #vision

This is an extract from this month‘s #VirginiaBloomsberries , Woolf talks about the process of writing but I think this applies to many things, where we start of with an idea but the end product is not what we had quite envisioned but somehow we still find a way to carry on.

Square Haunting: Five Women, Freedom and London Between the Wars by Francesca Wade is lined up for next months #VirginiaBloomsberries. I started reading it and 😍. This is a #nfnov, a #nonfiction that covers the lives of 5 women, three of whom are HD (Hilda Doolittle), Dorothy L Sayers and Virginia Woolf.
