make sure 'writer' is in the view context

not sure what is wrong here:

def writer_detail(request, pk):
  writer = Writer.objects.get(pk=pk)
  return render(request, 'articles/writer_detail.html', {'Writer': writer})

On the return statement you wrote 'Writer' instead of 'writer', this way it basically doesn't link to anything in the view html template. Just a typo, change that and it should run just fine.
