Does it make sense that people who could be writers also have the potential to be psychologists?

This is just a random question. It seems writers think really deeply and have a lot of understanding of feelings and behavior. Or is that just me?


(Also I know there is a difference between philosophy and psychology, but there is no psychology or even social studies category, so...)

It makes a lot of sense. Sigmund Freud didn't do too bad at combining his writing skills with his understanding of human behavior.
