At twenty she abandonded that career and began another as a writer of short stories. In 1910 she married John Maxwell Scott-Maxwell and went to live in his native Scotland. In 1929 they divorced and she moved to London. Her major pursuits were working for women's suffrage, writing plays, and tending her flowers and four children.
