Millien was one of the first to initiate a collection of songs and stories from his homeland. In 1896 he founded the monthly magazine "Revue du Nivernais". In 1910 she was hired by him.

Some of the representatives of the Parnassians were a little closer to Millien and today he is also included in the wider circle of this literary association.
