How the clue works
Right, so "Domineering" is your definition, that's the whole answer. For the wordplay: start with AUTHOR (a writer) and stick ITALIAN on the end, since someone from Rome, maybe, would be Italian. Now that "changing sides" bit means you swap the L (left) in ITALIAN for an R (right), turning it into ITARIAN, and stuck together with AUTHOR you get the answer.
