This is a great article and I'll explain why I think so: I am a relatively new writer with no writing background. However I am open to learning and constantly doing so. I also find that the knowledge garnered from reading has been highly beneficial language wise. My background in Economics helps me with analysis, research and marketing. So yes, it's a little bit of everything not just talent alone. I still have a long way to go but perseverance and commitment is the name of my game😊
