Your open to your opinion that's fine

But the writer was said by the Shifter to not have been himself in 30 years

And McGucket doesn't really seem like he could've written the books either

While I agree he's a bit minor nothing ever said the writer had to be someone we see a lot of so I wouldn't call it a "hole" But perhaps something that makes it unlikely.
