It makes no sense to convert an io.Writer to a string. io.Writer is an interface: any type which has a Write() method. So you can pass a string *to* a writer, to get it written somewhere, by calling the Write() method. In general, you can't get a string *from* a writer. If you google "go io.Writer" you'll get lots of tutorials and examples.
Depending on your application though, you might want to create a bytes.Buffer <https://golang.org/pkg/bytes/#Buffer> or strings.Builder <https://golang.org/pkg/strings/#Builder> object, both of which are an io.Writer. The written data gets appended to a buffer that you can read later.
