At least some things change.  From The New York Times Review of Martin Stannard's biography of Muriel Spark:
 

She aspired to be a poet in those days (and in fact never gave up writing poetry) and became the general secretary of the Poetry Society, which precisely because it was a backwater was a viper’s nest of invidiousness and intrigue.
