Dave Fagg. Versatile writer, editor, and contract researcher.

PUBLISHED: Working with a disability

Link is a fantastic national magazine focussing on people with disabilities of all kinds. I’ve been writing for them the last 12 months, and in December I got another article published. I interviewed Stephen Dragert from Bendigo.

Have a look at their latest issue here, and an excerpt from the article:

Stephen’s role includes collecting trolleys and keeping the floors, toilets and bins clean. But his favourite part of the job lies elsewhere…“Even though my job is not customer service, people often ask where products are, because I’m always around.” Steve is passionate about getting people with a disability into the workforce: “If people are included, then the whole community is stronger”.

I’m Dave Fagg

I’ve been a writer ever since my dad let me copy out letters to my Nanna on his manual typewriter.

My specialties are editing, writing grants and reports, and consulting in the nonprofit sector, particularly youth, community, and faith-based organisations. I also do contract research work such as literature reviews, qualitative interviews and analysis, and editing of academic writing.

My experience in teaching, youth work, and community work has developed excellent communication skills, an enthusiasm for deadlines, and the ability to listen to what clients really want, as well as what they need.

You can find out more about me here, or browse my LinkedIn, or see what others think of my work.

Get in touch to discuss your project—I’m looking forward to working with you.
