The Mighty Inkpot

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

David edited and proofed an 85,000 word book manuscript for me, and helped pulled the project together, including references and bibliography. He’s got a terrific eye for detail and an excellent ability to make prose less cluttered and more accessible. The work was done in very timely and unfussed way, and he really understood what we were trying to achieve with the book. Delighted to recommend his services.

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.
