In 1909, during the height of her involvement with the WSPU , Margaret Haig Mackworth (later MHVR ) began publishing articles in praise of militancy in the Western Mail. She had been walking with her father near her childhood home in Wales when they came upon the editor of the Mail. Her father , though ethically against militancy, took the opportunity to secure the editor's acceptance of occasional articles on suffrage by his daughter. She had doubts about her ability as a writer, but she felt that she could not reject such a heaven sent opportunity to further suffrage. She rapidly increased her output to three articles weekly in three local newspapers, usually disseminating essays written for Votes for Women. She was also asked to review books related to women's rights, one of which was H. G. Wells 's Marriage. She called this book the cloven hoof of the anti-suffragist movement. The review was printed in Votes for Women.

AD began writing short stories and poems when she was seven, and some appeared in children's magazines.

I was working in a vacuum, turning out words with no echo. It was a great help and relief to meet and form a friendship with Ruth Prawer Jhabvala , who lived nearby and was already a writer.AD describes her early writing habits as an addiction, saying I chain-smoke with words, with books. There is a difference, of course what begins as a self-indulgence eventually becomes a self-discipline.

She submitted essays under the name of Eloine to the New York Mercury, hoping by this means to secure a subscription to the magazine. The New York Mercury at first printed her contributions without sending her anything in return, but a stern reproof to the editor by letter produced a large batch of back numbers. She began submitting poetry under the same name, her first piece being an ambitious description of a highly emotional experience. The editor printed these with a half-column of sarcastic ridicule, and the remark that since she wrote acceptably in prose she ought never again to attempt poetical expression.
