Lucy Walford

From her first publication in the Sunday Magazine in May 1869, LW regularly wrote for several periodicals, often contributing advice to readers. She was consistently published in the Christian journal Good Words. In her article Cheerful Christianity, December 1882, for instance, she counsels her readers, implicitly women, to endeavour to be cheerful, attractive, pleasant Christians.

She advises: God does not wish His people to be dull folks. He gives them every cause, every right to be otherwise. . . . What, we may venture to suggest, what can be a more acceptable sacrifice, a more conclusive sign of repentance for sins, than a cheerful, hearty, resolute rejection of the world, the flesh, and the devil?
Walford, Lucy. “Cheerful Christianity”. Good Words, No. 23, Dec. 1882, pp. 238-40.
23 (December 1882): 238
Good Words also published LW 's poems and her serial novel Dick Netherby. Her advice about raising young women—in several different periodicals—included a piece in Practical Teacher in 1906 called What Young Girls Read and Enjoy.

Angela Thirkell

Thirkell began writing this book late in 1934 (under pressure of anxiety because her first husband, James Campbell McInnes , was back in England from Canada for the first time in years). To her publisher, James Hamilton , she expressed considerable lack of confidence about the novel, and later spoke of it as bad, but it reached a second impression in England in the year of publication, and was then taken up for serialising in Australia.

George Sand

Like many of the novels written between 1832 and her death, this one was first serialized in the Revue des Deux Mondes. It was understood to define something about GS 's philosophies of love. Lélia describes the narrative as a tale of an unhappy heart, lost in its own wealth of potential, blighted before it had a chance to live, worn out by hope and rendered impotent by too much potence.

GS was more interested in depicting ideas than characters: the love interest sports black hair in one chapter and golden locks in another.
