c'est vrai. whatever you do, however much you think you're not writing about yourself, in fact every page you write of a novel, every scene, even if its about people quite unlike yourself, says something about the writer and at the end there is a very fair sense of the writer in the readers mind
if someone is readable at all he or she will say just what sort of person is doing the writing
art, in any medium, is a conversation with the artist
