One might say that the purpose of an opinion piece is to express yourself, and that essentially entails giving away a part of yourself.
To that I say, I am not concerned with what I am explicitly trying to say in the text, but with the unintentional underlying giveaway.
I complete a piece and re-read it and there it is, staring me in the face, things I had no intention of expressing and yet I have, as a subtext.
This makes me wonder, if it is possible for any piece of writing to be completely independent of the author, even if it is a fictional piece?
