Hello!
I believe a gerund is a "ing" word taking place as a noun. We can't be 100% sure, because it is not used in a sentence, it depends on how you use it in the sentence if it is a gerund or not. Overall, the word "writing" is not a gerund.

After looking for qualifying words in the claim, the next step is to determine what the writer considers to be the situations in which the writer's claim doesn't apply. In other words, it is necessary to identify any exceptions the writer makes to her claim.
