| Written while she was still a teenager, the novel gained immediate popularity. The perceived closeness of many of the characters to her own family and circumstances as small farmers in New South Wales led Franklin to withdraw the novel from publication until after her death. The story concerns the experiences of an imaginative girl growing up in Australia in the 1890s.

| Following the publication of "My Brilliant Career" in 1901 Franklin tried a career in nursing, and then as a housemaid in Sydney and Melbourne. Whilst working in these jobs she contributed pieces to The Daily Telegraph and The Sydney Morning Herald under the pseudonyms "An Old Bachelor" and "Vernacular." During this period she wrote a sequel to "My Brilliant Career" ("My Career Goes Bung") which proved too contentious to publish and did not become available to the public until 1946. [Wikipedia]
