Mary Shelley became an author because she was encouraged by her husband, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and Lord Byron to write a ghost story during a trip to Switzerland in 1816. This led her to write the novel "Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus" which was published in 1818 and became a significant work in the Gothic genre.
