Answer/Explanation

The author, Mark Twain, writes about himself as if he is another character in the story.

In the beginning, it seems as if Huck is talking instead of Mark Twain, because Huck is talking about Twain and the book Tom Sawyer and says that Twain lied and that he will tell a story that is more truthful for understanding characters who are in the book.
