Emmeline Pethick-Lawrence

Between 1908 and 1950, EPL wrote and signed many letters to the editor of the Times. They covered a variety of subjects, from women's suffrage and female labour and wages, to international issues like Abyssinian refugees, aid to Ethiopia, and Indian independence. On 21 June 1940 (following the fall of Paris to the Nazis and the first bombs on London) she wrote a letter urging the British Government to base its argument for rallying the nation in time of war on the moral issue of courage and willingness to sacrifice lives rather than the expedient one of preserving Britain's safety.

Phebe Gibbes

This novel aroused much interest. One letter was reprinted almost entire, without attribution, on 2 July 1789 in the Aberdeen Magazine as a Picture of the Mode of living at Calcutta. In a letter from a Lady to her Friend in England. Even more blatantly, the New Annual Register for 1790 reprinted its account of the nawab's procession as that of an actual, named ruler, said to have taken place on 7 June 1790.

Among those reading it correctly as fiction, Elizabeth Montagu tried to discover the author, while Catherine Hutton compared it to Frances Brooke writing on Canada in Emily Montague. The Critical, in a two-sentence review, said: We have been much pleased with these volumes; for, in the guise of a novel, they will convey much information.

In the Analytical, Mary Wollstonecraft found (despite a few trifling blemishes and excessive quotation of poetry) the book entertaining and vivid, with an easy style and pertinent reflections. She supposed that at least the first sketch had been done on the spot, in India.

A politically less reformist reviewer in the English Review blamed the novel for unfairly representing members of English society in Calcutta as empty-headed pleasure-seekers.

Agnes Giberne

Two of the early books which AG wrote for the RTS were, as the titles explained, for very little children. Their dates, like those of many of her later works, are conjecturally supplied in the British Library Catalogue, since they appeared undated. A Visit to Aunt Agnes, published in 1864 while AG was still in her teens, puts her readers in the position of nieces and nephews. In 1866 she published Sunday Afternoons With Mamma. Willie and Lucy at the Sea-side, 1868, offers, as its title suggests, instruction as well as amusement. Next year AG published Hungering and Thirsting as the author of Willie and Lucy at the Sea-side. The year after that came Charity's Birthday Text, and later several more titles under this allusive label.

Hungering and Thirsting and Charity's Birthday Text also appeared in abridged form, probably in 1905, in the Bouverie Series of Penny Stories, as did Five Little Birdies, which apparently dated from 1883, and others of her works for small children.

Susan Hill

SH began reviewing books for Time and Tide as an undergraduate. After taking her degree she spent five years as book-review editor for the Coventry Evening Telegraph before returning to fiction. By the mid-1960s she was trying to keep herself while she developed her literary career: reviewing was useful, but it was stories for women's magazines that enabled her to build up a nest-egg.

She continued long after this to work in journalism and broadcasting. She reviewed for The Times from 1974 (writing often about fiction by women, though she disavowed any commitment to the hothouse female novel.

Laurence Hope

While living at Mhow in Indore, Hope began to write poetry once more, giving her work to friends or publishing it anonymously in the journals of local clubs. It was here that she wrote the material that would form her first publication, The Garden of Káma. Her husband , who was the commanding officer of the Western Command based in Mhow, seems to have known about Hope's writing (despite rumours to the contrary), and apparently commented to a friend: My wife had quite a knack of expressing deep emotion and certain phases of native life.

Muriel Jaeger

As a member of Somerville 's Mutual Admiration Society MJ must already have been writing, since the group existed for the purpose of mutual literary encouragement. She collaborated with Dorothy Sayers in writing, and performing in, the 1915 going-down or graduation play entitled Pied Pipings, or the Innocents Abroad (even though while Sayers was going down, Jaeger was staying an extra, fourth year at university). She sent Sayers a sonnet of her composition in September 1915. By October 1918 she was apparently a reviewer for the Church Times, for which she offered to cover Sayers's Catholic Tales and Christian Songs.

She wished to be a novelist from childhood, but an early marriage, motherhood, and her husband's mental illness prevented her from realising her ambitions until later in life. Nearing her fortieth birthday, she determined to begin her writing career before the opportunity was forever lost.
