Well, let's see...someone who writes prose and then brags about it would be a prosetatoot.

Someone whose prose writing blows people away would a prosenater.

Someone who writes prose hoping to strike it rich would be a prosepector.

A happy writer...

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

a happy writer -- that would be a prose-ac

an accusing writer -- a prosecutor
