In an article by Bernice May, Horder explains her meticulous drawing methods in detail. She reveals her interest in amateur acting and costume design and discusses the writers and artists who inspire her. At the time of May's interview Horder was living with her friend and business partner, Betty Rogers, who also acted as a model for many of Horder's illustrations.
Horder illustrated several works of fiction in The Australian Woman's Mirror including 'The Grey Dress' and Alys Brown's Tide-Rips.
The article contains a portrait photograph of Margaret Horder.
