You say that Writer is a package, but apparently Python disagrees. A  
package is not just "a directory containing an __init__.py file", this is  
half the truth. Python must be *aware* of such file, and this happens when  
you import the package.

If you directly run a script from inside a package, Python does not know  
that it belongs to a package, and treats it as a simple, lonely script. In  
that case, relative imports won't work.

Put the "main" script (the one that you directly execute) outside the  
package. It can be as small as this, if you want:

 from some.package import main
main()
