IDENTITY -- a fundamental property of all things

Identity --- that which resists annihilation, is a fundamental property and the drive of all things to remain what they are.

A writer is someone who has an identity. Who is the writer? Is he an inkfish that espews ink to hide himself or is he someone that really comes through as a point of view of a sector of reality?

Who does the writer purport to represent and is he really honest about it? One does not become a serious reader without taking the writer's identity into consideration.

                                     Hmmm, I wonder, muses the cat, if I am who I am and what
                                             I think I see out there is really what is out there...
