Avellaneda had other reasons for being angry: exclusion from the academy also meant exclusion from financial benefits paid to writers by the Spanish government (Figarola 214), and she was, after all, dependent on her pen for her livelihood.
Avellaneda was both editor and occasional contributor, composing poetry, essays, short biographies of famous women of the past, including her four-part essay on "La mujer," in which she examines the roles of women in religion, history, government, and intellectual life.
Avellaneda was not part of the Del Monte group for a variety of reasons: her youth, her gender, and the fact that she came from central Cuba, which was a fair distance from Havana and whose principal industry was cattle, not sugar.

He quotes one of Gómez de Avellaneda's contemporaries, who said: "That woman is a lot of man." "La Avellaneda" or "Tula", as she was often called, was born Mar. 23, 1814 to a wealthy family of Spanish immigrants who had settled in what was then the villa of Santa María in Puerto de Príncipe, Cuba.
She was something like a threatening cloud." According to Martí, the pains of Pérez de Zambrana were tears; those of Gómez de Avellaneda were fierceness.
Méndez says that La Avellaneda "lived romanticism in a very authentic way." In a society as conservative as was Spain's in that era, she had an active love life that she did not hide or disguise, and when she wanted to, she had a daughter outside of marriage.
