Start with the identity transformation e.g.
   <xsl:template match="@* | node()">
     <xsl:copy>
       <xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()"/>
     </xsl:copy>
   </xsl:template>
then add a template for writer elements that creates two elements
   <xsl:template match="writer">
     <writer1><xsl:value-of select="substring(., 1, 3)"/></writer1>
     <writer2><xsl:value-of select="substring(., 4)"/></writer2>
   </xsl:template>

You have not made it clear what the criteria are for splitting the 
strings so I have simply used the substring function.
