Skilled writer’s angry talk with German husband (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

wordsmith

'skilled writer's' is the definition.
(someone who works with words)

'angry talk with german husband' is the wordplay.
'angry talk' becomes 'words' (as in 'having words' with someone).
'with german' becomes 'mit' ('with' in German).
'husband' becomes 'h'.
'words'+'mit'+'h'='WORDSMITH'

(Other definitions for wordsmith that I've seen before include "Person skilled at writing" , "he'd be good at coining?" , "Skilled writer or orator" , "Author" , "fluent writer" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
