1718) is the name of a novelist whose works were published by Edmund Curll.
The Oxford Dictionary of National Biography treats "Mary Hearne" as a proper biographical subject, but with no documentary evidence of birth, death, or marriage records.
Edmund Curll published the two together as Honour, the Victory; and Love, the Prize in 1720, but they were the same novels under new titles and format.
He had them serialised in Heathcote's Original London Post in 1724, but, again, without any change.
The first novel features a middle-class woman seeking pleasure and wealth, and in seven days she courts and obtains a sexual and romantic liaison and source of money without marriage.
