Her mother died soon after her birth, and Mary was raised first under the care of servants, then by a stepmother, and finally in the rarefied intellectual atmosphere of her father's circle. In May 1814, she met Percy Bysshe Shelley and, in July of the year, moved with him to the Continent. Two years later, after the death of Shelley's wife, the poet and Mary were able to wed. It was in Switzerland in 1816, as a result of a story-writing competition among the Shelleys and Lord Byron, that Mary began \u003ci\u003eFrankenstein\u003c\/i\u003e, her first and most famous novel. Published in 1818, it was followed by such works as \u003ci\u003eValperga\u003c\/i\u003e (1823), \u003ci\u003eThe Last Man\u003c\/i\u003e (1826), and \u003ci\u003eFalkner\u003c\/i\u003e (1837).

By 1871, he had become the drama critic for the Dublin \u003ci\u003eMail\u003c\/i\u003e and had gained experience as a newspaper editor, reporter, and short story writer. In 1878 he became the personal assistant to Sir Henry Irving, the foremost Shakespearean actor of his day, accompanying him on tours and managing Irving's theater. After Irving's death in 1905, Stoker worked on the literary staff of the London \u003ci\u003eTelegraph\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003ci\u003e Dracula\u003c\/i\u003e, his most famous work, was published in 1897. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Throughout his life, \u003cb\u003eRobert Louis Stevenson\u003c\/b\u003e (1850-1894) was plagued by ill health, which interrupted his formal education at Edinburgh University. Pursuing the life of a bohemian during his twenties and thirties, he traveled around Europe and formed the basis of his first two books, \u003ci\u003eAn Inland Journey\u003c\/i\u003e (1878) and \u003ci\u003eTravels with a Donkey\u003c\/i\u003e (1879).

Born in Boston in 1809 to itinerant actors, Poe was orphaned as an infant and sent to live with a Richmond merchant, John Allan. Allan sent him to the University of Virginia in 1826, but Poe withdrew because of gambling debts. In 1830, with his first book of poems already published, he entered West Point but was dishonorably discharged the next year. In 1835 Poe was chosen editor of the \u003ci\u003eSouthern Literary Messenger\u003c\/i\u003e. Poe was already established as an author when, in 1845, the publication of \"The Raven\" made him famous. He began to lecture, engaged in a celebrated feud with Longfellow, and became sole proprietor of his own magazine, \u003ci\u003eBroadway Journal\u003c\/i\u003e. But in 1846 the magazine went bankrupt, and in 1847, after years of suffering, Poe's wife died of consumption. His ill health and drinking worsened.

In 1908 a grant from the Civil List allowed him to write full time.

In 1913 he joined the United Amateur Press Association, beginning a career as a writer in the course of which he published poems, journalism, and stories. Increasingly drawn to horror fiction, Lovecraft was a regular contributor to the Chicago pulp magazine \u003ci\u003eWeird Tales\u003c\/i\u003e.

Poe attended the University of Virginia, which he left because of gambling debts, and West Point, from which he was dishonorably discharged. \"MS. Found in a Bottle\" was Poe's first significant success, and it helped him to obtain an editorial position on \u003ci\u003eThe Southern Literary Messenger\u003c\/i\u003e in Baltimore, though he was soon fired for drinking. Poe married his thirteen-year-old cousin, Virginia, and moved north, where he lived in New York City and Philadelphia while continuing to produce poems, criticism, and stories at a prodigious rate. After his wife's death from tuberculosis, Poe's behavior became increasingly erratic. In 1849 he was found drunk and delirious in a bar in Baltimore, the apparent victim of a political gang that had kept him inebriated while escorting him from ballot station to ballot station to cast repeat votes.
