translate English to French: She was clearly not interested in pushing her own story centre-stage if it meant losing the interest of her correspondents. She was anxious to share her ideas with others rather then telling them bluntly what she thought.
Elle cherche plutôt à anticiper les préoccupations de ses lointains correspondants et n'entend pas donner des nouvelles d'elle-même sans penser à ceux ou à celles qui vont la lire.
