overwrought is not a word i knew. a "wrought" thing is made in a particular way, or made by effort and artistry, and an "overwrought" thing is overly complex or elaborate. You can say, "a novel she wrought" or the novel was "well wrought". Presumably "she wrought a novel" is also fine. Its like a generalised "made something using skills". "Beautifully wrought code". Although I reckon most reading it would just think you can't spell.
