for magazines and screenplays.

The 1918 film 'Cecilia of the Pink Roses' was adapted from her novel.
The story was reprinted in installments along with movie stills as
part of a publicity campaign. Two other films were adapted from her
1932 short story "Failure".

Her second novel 'Cross Currents' was described in a brief writeup as
a delightful story of modern life.
