Composition Theory Related Idea: My Theory

In talking with a classmate in my Ficiton II class about why I am continually drawn back to a certain story, I said this:
"He [a character of mine] is a distorted representation..interpretation of my own personal problems, and as long as I continue to have these problems he will continue to fascinate me"
And then I realized what just came out of my mouth and I was like, "Eureka!"  That's Greek, it means "I've found it!".  I thought that this would be a very cool thing to talk about.  It's my own theory (I actually said "that's my theory")about how I write, not anybody else, not how I learned to write, but why I write.  What I get out of it.
I thought that was worth writing down and sharing.  Thanks, Jamina.
