She beheld no inconsistency in utilizing whim to express the very details of our beautiful nature: “Can any magic tale be more marvelous, or any thought grander, or more sublime than this?”. She wrote using her maiden name though she was already married. She used her married name, Mrs Fisher in her Eyes and No Eyes.
