Notice that we can also use various attributes that would typcially be used on form fields, such as `widget=widgets.Testarea`. These can be used to control how the serializer should render when displayed as an HTML form.
We can actually also save ourselves some time by using the `ModelSerializer` class, as we'll see later, but for now we'll keep our serializer definition explicit.
