She began writing in 1914 at the age of 50 and continued until her death after a long illness in 1951. After her death, her estate was managed by her sons, Selden M. and Robert M. Loring, who, based on a wealth of unfinished material they discovered, published twenty more books under her name until 1972. These books were ghost written by Elinore Denniston.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe majority of Loring's books are highly romantic mysteries that focus on a young, independent woman with courage and ideals who finds herself in a tricky situation, relies on the help of a strong, handsome man and ends up with him at the end of the story. Beyond romance and mystery, her books also explore a selection of topics including marriage, love, the work ethic, American patriotism, freedom and optimism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShe enjoyed painting pictures with words, often describing the environment, architecture, dress, food and physical features of characters in exacting and colorful detail. In the books published after she died, a lot of the colorful description was left out. Another major difference in the books published before and after the author's death is the characters' language, a change for the better. In a lot of the early books, too many of the characters use American slang, which sounds like it came straight from the early talkies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLoring's work features several repeating motifs; among them are a heroine in her early 20s with dark hair, a dark-haired lawyer or aspiring politician for a hero, a secondary male predisposed to speaking in quotations, a \"sleek\" bad guy, a wise older woman who may or may not end up with a wise older man who has long been in love with her, a flirtatious blond woman vying for the hero and New England as a setting or character trait: \"New England granite\". Often-used plot devices in her novels include an orphaned character, a marriage of convenience or contract, a clandestine marriage and trouble coming from outside a well-knit social structure.
