Ethel M. Dell

From 1911 to 1939, Ethel May Dell Savage wrote over 30 popular romance books and a few short stories under the pen name Ethel M. Dell. She was born on August 2, 1881, and died on September 17, 1939. Dell came from a middle-class family and was born on August 2, 1881, in Streatham, an English neighborhood. They had a father who worked as a clerk in the City of London and a mother who was a housewife. Dell has been writing stories since he was very young, and many of them have been published in well-known magazines. Her stories were mostly about love and took place in the British Raj and other old British colonies. Some people thought her stories were too sexual. It was known that her cousins kept track of how many times she used the words thrill, tremble, excitement, and pant. Dell spent many years writing her first book, The Way of an Eagle. It was turned down eight times by other companies before it was finally published by T. Fisher Unwin. The book was part of Unwin's First Novel Library, a collection that showed off a writer's first book.
