I believe the answer is:

knit

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

'use to bond together' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'reviews time for the writers' is the wordplay.
'reviews' shows that the letters should be reversed in order (view the letters another way).
'time for' becomes 't' (I've seen this in other clues).
'the writers' becomes 'ink' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
't'+'ink'='tink'
'tink' written backwards gives 'KNIT'.

'to' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for knit that I've seen before include "Mend" , "Unite together" , "(Bone) heal; contract (brows)" , "become closer" , "Become joined" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times.
