To be honest and not to freak you out, but I'd say yes. When you're
writing it helps to have some passion for what you're writing about,
and if you buttress that passion with knowledge, you're home free. Now
you can write without passion, but it's awful hard to write without
knowledge, even if you are writing marketing materials! :)
