Much of Ryley's early writing was done in secret. While she was still acting, Ryley was also writing short stories, drawing sketches for magazines, and she gained unaccredited writing experience with the McCaull Opera Company.[3] Ryley stated: "Colonel McCaul, finding I was quick at writing songs and fixing up scenes, employed me at what is termed 'hack work,' on the understanding that my name was never to appear. He explained that women were not supposed to have a sense of humor, and that a topical song or a comedian's scene coming from a woman would not be tolerated!"[4] Ryley penned her first comedy, Lady Jemima, in 1890 in two weeks.[5] Minnie Maddern bought the piece and eventually produced it.[citation needed]
