Under her own name, she wrote a pamphlet The Cause of Purity and Women"s Suffrage which was published by the Church League for Women"s Suffrage in 1912. As Susan Miles, she published several slim volumes of poetry: Dunch (1918), Annotations (1922), Little Mirrors (1923?), The Hares (1924), News! News! Dunch was sufficiently significant to earn her a reasonably positive mention in Harold Monro"s often unforgiving Some Contemporary Poets (1920) and Herbert Palmer described her as "One the most original" in the chapter on Women Poets in his 1938 study of post-Victorian poetry. She also edited Childhood in Verse and Prose (1923) and An Anthology of Youth in Verse and Prose (1925).
