Crossword Genius

Liking to write slogan (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

penchant

'liking' is the definition.
(I know that penchant is a type of liking)

'write slogan' is the wordplay.
'write' becomes 'pen' (synonyms).
'slogan' becomes 'chant'.
'pen'+'chant'='PENCHANT'

'to' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for penchant that I've seen before include "Fondness (for) - bias (towards)" , "Leaning towards or liking for" , "weakness" , "Strong liking, inclination" , "Willingness" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Telegraph.
