In 1882, she published under the pseudonym Jolanda, which she borrowed from a character in the opera Una Partita a Scacchi ("A Game of Chess") by Giuseppe Giacosa.

[1] Majocchi responded immediately with her first poetic sketch, "Il fior della ventura" (The Flower of Fortune), which was published under her first pseudonym, Margheritina di Cento, on 12 February 1882.

[1] Her first stories, which were originally published in installments, were collected for publication in later years as single volumes: Dal mio verziere (From My Orchard), Critical essays (Rocca San Casciano, 1896) and Le Ignote (The Unknowns) (Bologna, 1899).

[1] On 8 December 1884, Majocchi married the Marquis Ferdinando Plattis, a young man from Padua, and she moved to San Giovanni in Persiceto.

She also expanded her range of collaborations with magazines and newspapers, conferences, public speeches, participation in humanitarian activities and new editorial experiences.

[1] Having been a collaborator with Cordelia since the first issue, Majocchi assumed the vacant position of editor-in-chief in 1911 after the death of editor Ida Baccini.

The success of that initiative spurred the formation of other associations and activities, such as making Cordelia available in braille to expand its reach to blind patrons.
