From a book I read:
"In attendance were myself and Maggie."
This is just a bad sentence. "Myself" is called a reflexive pronoun and it refers back to I: "I myself love candy," you might say, or "I gave myself a present." A reflexive pronoun doesn't stand alone.
If we fix the pronoun problem, we get "In attendance were Maggie and I."
Still a terrible sentence. Why not just say, "Maggie and I attended"?
