Morphology
The meaning 'a section of text or a work created by an author' is directly and compositionally derived from 'piece' (a unit or work) + 'of' (linking/genitive) + 'writing' (written text), so a B1 learner who knows the constituents will understand it. This noun + of + noun pattern is cross-linguistically common and follows standard English composition, making the expression immediately transparent.
Etymology
The noun piece of writing paints a simple picture: a single piece of paper or one part of a larger work with writing on it. So it means 'a section of text or a work created by a writer'.
