Elinor Sutherland Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018
Elinor Glyn, née Sutherland (b. 17 October 1864 – d. 23 September 1943), was a British novelist and scriptwriter who specialised in romantic fiction which was considered scandalous for its time. She popularized the concept of It. Although her works are relatively tame by modern standards, she had tremendous influence on early 20th century popular culture and perhaps on the careers of notable Hollywood stars such as Rudolph Valentino, Gloria Swanson and Clara Bow in particular.
Coined the term "it" (eg. "an 'it' girl") and defined it as "a strange magnetism that attracts both sexes." She claimed only four people in Hollywood had "it": Antonio Moreno, Rex the Wild Stallion, the Ambassador Hotel doorman, and Clara Bow.

"Three Weeks" took six weeks to write.

After getting married she wrote sentimental romance novels to help make ends meet. These were only moderately successful. Then she decided to go all out and write a selacious novel about a three-week love affair between an exotic woman and an upper-class man. "Three Weeks" was an instant scandal in 1907. Like "Lady Chatterly's Lover" and "Peyton Place", it was vilified from the world's pulpits while becoming a worldwide smash (although not as well written as either of those books). Initially banned for a time in the United States and Great Britain, "Three Weeks" provided Madame Glyn, as she was sometimes called, with lifetime financial security.
