She wrote The Black Moth as a story for her brother Boris. Her father, impressed with his daughter's imagination, suggested that she prepare it to be published, which it was by Constable in 1921. Having scored an instant success with <a class="showlessmore_link" id="u_beaf2_showmore" onclick="truncate_show('u_beaf2')" >show more</a><span class="hideme" id="u_beaf2"> The Black Moth at the age of nineteen under her own name, Georgette Heyer, she experimented with a pseudonym, Stella Martin, for her third book, published by Mills & Boon. She continued writing and in 1925 she married Ronald Rougier, a mining engineer. After reasonable but not spectacular sales from her first few books the instant success of These Old Shades in 1926 brought her a solid source of income which was very necessary at the time since the family relied to a large extent on the income from Georgette Heyer's writing. She wrote over fifty books during her lifetime and created the Regency England genre of romance novels. She died on July 4, 1974 at the age of 71.

Heyer wrote meticulously researched historical-romance novels, specializing in the late eighteenth/early nineteenth-century, and was most famous for her Regency novels. She lived a sheltered childhood and at age 17, created a serial story to amuse her brother Boris, who was ill; their father asked her to prepare it for publication and his agent found a publisher for it -- this became The Black Moth (1921), about a disgraced young aristocrat who becomes a highwayman. According to Georgette Heyer's biographer Jane Aiken Hodge, that first novel contained many of the elements that would become standard for Heyer's works, the "saturnine male lead, the marriage in danger, the extravagant wife, and the group of idle, entertaining young men." Beginning in 1932, Heyer released one romance novel and one detective thriller each year. Her books were highly popular both in the UK and the USA and she remains an enduring international bestseller, read and loved by four generations of readers.</div></span></dd></dl></div></span></section><section class="w_a_section" id="section_members" ><h2 class="lt_turndown" id="u_3154" data-caret-id="tdc_u_3154" data-hidden-id="tdh_u_4283" data-visible="1" onclick="lt.newauthor.saveSticky("members", event);;lt.turndown_toggle(this, event);" href="javascript:void(0);" data-duration="200" data-name="members" data-group="worksections" ><i class="fa-solid fa-chevron-up turndown_indicator" id="tdc_u_3154" data-turndown-style="chevron" ></i>Members</h2><span id="tdh_u_4283" ><a name="members"></a><div id="newauthor_members"></div></span></section><section class="w_a_section" id="section_discussions" ><h2 class="lt_turndown" id="u_2baf" data-caret-id="tdc_u_2baf" data-hidden-id="tdh_u_64b4" data-visible="1" onclick="lt.newauthor.saveSticky("discussions", event);;lt.turndown_toggle(this, event);" href="javascript:void(0);" data-duration="200" data-name="discussions" data-group="worksections" ><i class="fa-solid fa-chevron-up turndown_indicator" id="tdc_u_2baf" data-turndown-style="chevron" ></i>Discussions</h2><span id="tdh_u_64b4" ><a name="discussions"></a><div id="u_48ffe906" class="lt_itemlist"><div class="ltil_item " ><i class="fa-solid fa-messages dormant"></i> <a href="/topic/354847">OT: Heyer censored</a> in Folio Society Devotees <span class="note">(November 2023)</span></div><div class="ltil_item " ><i class="fa-solid fa-messages dormant"></i> <a href="/topic/353369">Georgette Heyer -

At times, it felt stuffy and blustery, especially in the dialogue, where I found myself struggling with the verbosity of certain characters.<br><br>»*Really, Horace, I must say that I think that most unjust of you, for how could he help it? It is so mortifying for him! And, what is more, excessively unfortunate, because I don’t doubt that had he been able to attach <u class="showmore_hide">Cecilia… But no one can deny that nothing could be more ill-timed than Charlbury’s mumps!*« <br> <br>This type of rambling speech made the beginning of the book feel quite slow for me. The social dynamics and constant talk of marriages seemed quaint and twee—typical of early 20th-century historical fiction, yet it grated on me initially. However, as the story progressed and Sophy’s vivacious nature took centre stage, the novel became utterly irresistible. From orchestrating romantic entanglements to causing delightful mayhem, Sophy is a force of nature.<br><br>Though it’s tempting to dismiss such stories as too formulaic or predictable, Heyer demonstrates masterful pacing. Her truly witty writing, far better than many imitators in the Regency romance genre, propelled the latter half of the book to become a page-turner of the highest degree. Compared to Heyer’s *Venetia*, I found *The Grand Sophy* more energetic. While old-fashioned in certain areas, it holds up far better than many of her contemporaries.<br><br>Four out of five stars.<br><br><a href="https://mailstation.de/" rel="nofollow"
