One revealing some talent for writing? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tale

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'writing?' is the definition.
(I know that tale is a type of fiction)

'one revealing some talent' is the wordplay.
'one revealing' becomes 'ta' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'some' says to take the centre.
The centre of 'talent' is 'le'.
'ta'+'le'='TALE'

'for' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tale that I've seen before include "Shakespeare play: 'The Winter's . . . .'" , "See 12" , "Yarn or story" , "An account of incidents or events" , "Late with a story" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
