He also produced stage productions for a few years and gave college lectures. Morley's first novel, Parnassus on Wheels, appeared in 1917. The protagonist, traveling bookselloer Roger Mifflin, appeared again in his second novel, The Haunted Bookshop in 1919. Morley was one of the founders and a longtime contributing editor of the Saturday Review of Literature. A highly gregarious man, he was the mainstay of what he dubbed the "Three Hours for Lunch Club". Out of enthusiasm for the Sherlock Holmes stories, he helped to found the Baker Street Irregulars and wrote the introduction to the standard omnibus edition of The Complete Sherlock Holmes. He also wrote an introduction to the standard omnibus edition of The Complete Works of Shakespeare in 1936, although Morley called it an "Introduction to Yourself as a Reader of Shakespeare". That year, he was appointed to revise and enlarge Bartlett's Familiar Quotations. He was one of the first judges for the Book of the Month Club, serving in that position until the early 1950s. In all, Morley was the author of more than 100 novels, books of essays, and volumes of poetry.
