In the 70s, she was prohibited from publishing for political reasons, and so she worked as a pharmacist. In that time, she published several books under other authors' names. In the 80s, she tried publishing once again under her own name. She returned to the theme of witches and wrote a screenplay for a mini-series of fantasy comedies entitled Fire Women. Starting in the 90s, she began writing again full-time. She co-wrote the screenplay for Cinelabyrinth for the exhibition in Osaka, Japan.
