What is wrong?

don't see a template ((

articles/views.py 
from django.shortcuts import render, render_to_response

from .models import Article, Writer


def article_list(request):
    articles = Article.objects.all()
    return render(request, 'articles/article_list.html', {'articles': articles})

def writer_detail(request, A_pk):
    writer = Writer.objects.get(pk=A_pk)

You are so close!! What you need to do is NOT use render_to_response(), but just render().

Good luck with Django, it is a truly great web framework!

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