She readily appreciated her father's loss; shared hardships suffered especially by her more vigorous mother; and surmounted her own educational disadvantages proving thereafter an enterprising aspirant to literature. ||  ||  Completed by 1899, her marvellously rebellious //My Brilliant Career//, rejected locally and published with the aid of Henry Lawson by William Blackwood & Sons, Edinburgh and London, in 1901, brought instant acclaim. The ambiguities of publication were soon impressed on an otherwise resourceless 22-year-old female. As translated into the contemporaneous //My Career Goes Bung// (unpublished until 1946), the self-styled 'Bushwacker' recoiled from rural notoriety and social-cum-sexual patronage in Sydney, including Banjo Paterson's sporting offer of collaboration in 1902. She struggled towards a literary niche, sheltered by the O'Sullivans and from 1902 Miss Rose Scott, who introduced her to sophisticated feminist circles. For a year in 1903-04, disguised as 'Sarah Frankling', she worked in domestic service in Sydney and Melbourne seeking literary material. In Melbourne she met Joseph Furphy, a mutual and lasting inspiration, Kate Baker and the Goldstein women who encouraged her to Christian Science and, more effectively, emigration

Without rejecting a marriage proposal from her relative Edwin Bridle in 1905, Franklin boldly embarked in the //Ventura// for the United States of America on 7 April 1906, intending to work as a 'Mary Ann'

Franklin bequeathed her entire personal and literary archive to the Mitchell Library. No Australian writer had ever done such a thing—or, at least, I have been unable to find any who did. And it was an extraordinary archive. In its completeness, extent and range, it was unrivalled at the time and probably still is among writers’ archives. Franklin's first novel, //My Brilliant Career,// was written in its original version when she was 16. || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 7pt; line-height: 115%;">Well known persons working at the same time. || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; font-size: 7pt; line-height: 115%;"> unpublished novel, Red Cross Nurse, by Australian author Miles Franklin.
