The Mighty Inkpot

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

Back in the saddle

After a stint in public office, it’s time to get back into freelance writing, editing, and research.

I’m gliding down the off-ramp of 4 years as a councillor for the Greater Bendigo City Council. It’s been a great ride, but it’s time to stop. Which means it’s also time to find some extra work.

I am looking for short-term or freelance work that uses my skills in teaching, research, writing, and editing.

If you are looking for someone to plug some gaps, or to complete a project that’s been hanging around for too long, please get in touch!

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.
