Testing against mailto() method?

I haven't yet taken the Python Testing course, so I'm a bit lost here. I'm trying to use assertIn() to test the email address, but I keep getting an error. What am I doing wrong?

articles/tests.py 
from django.test import TestCase
from .models import Writer

class WriterModelTestCase(TestCase):
    def test_course_creation(self):
        writer = Writer.objects.create(
            name="Art Vandelay",
            bio="Mr. Vandelay designed the new wing for the Guggenheim.",
      email="art@vandelay.com",
        )
    self.assertIn(writer.email, writer.mailto())
articles/models.py 
from django.db import models


class Article(models.Model):
    headline = models.CharField(max_length=255)
    publish_date = models.DateTimeField()
    content = models.TextField()
    writer = models.ForeignKey('Writer')

    def __str__(self):
        return self.headline


class Writer(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=255)
    email = models.EmailField()
    bio = models.TextField()

    def __str__(self):
        return self.name

    def mailto(self):
        return '{} <{}>'.format(self.name, self.email)

Never mind; it was an indentation problem.
