Quote by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
I am very averse to bringing myself forward in print, but as my account will only appear as an appendage to a former production, and as it will be confined to such topics as have connection with my authorship alone, I can hardly accuse myself of a personal intrusion.
Summary
The author states their hesitation in presenting themselves in writing, but justifies their forthcoming account as it will only supplement their previous work. They feel their contribution will be limited to matters related solely to their own writing, thus exempting it from being an intrusive personal narrative.
