Franklin resettled in Australia in 1932 after the death of her father in 1931.
During that decade she wrote several historical novels of the Australian bush, although most of these were published under the pseudonym "Brent of Bin Bin".
New South Wales State Librarian, Dagmar Schmidmaier, said "Miles increasingly feared that nothing she wrote matched the success of My Brilliant Career and resorted to writing under different names, including the bizarre pseudonym Brent of Bin Bin, to protect herself from poor reviews."
However, All That Swagger was published under her own name in 1936.

Throughout her life, Franklin actively supported Australian literature.
She joined the Fellowship of Australian Writers in 1933 and the Sydney P.E.N. Club in 1935.
She encouraged young writers such as Jean Devanny, Sumner Locke Elliott and Ric Throssell and she supported the new literary journals, Meanjin and Southerly.

Miles entertained literary figures at her home in Carlton, NSW.
An autograph book known as Miles Franklin's Waratah Book held by the State Library of NSW was used for autographs and inscriptions.
Guests were encouraged to drink tea from the Waratah Cup and to write in the Waratah Book.

In 1937, Franklin declined appointment as an Officer of the Order of the British Empire.

Franklin became increasingly involved in the Australian ultra-nationalist movement in the 1930s.
