Hello, I am Dick David.
I enjoy helping thought leaders and experts sharpen their original ideas while preserving their voice.
I detest content that sounds profound but is hollow — the kind pushed out just for volume or attention. To me, writing is a way of extracting ideas from the mind. And the better the mind, the better the ideas.
That’s why I love working with experts who believe their ideas matter, and who want those ideas to reach and truly help the right people. I also know writing can be difficult, especially if you want it to connect and have an impact. That’s where I come in.
I’ve been writing, editing, and marketing for over 8 years. In that time, I’ve consumed a dizzying amount of books, blogs, podcasts, and videos on psychology, philosophy, and digital marketing. If I weren’t already a writer and editor (where my real strength lies), I’d probably be a therapist or coach — because nothing excites me more than improving ideas.
Working with me means adding friction to your work — the kind that sharpens a blade. My job is to draw your best ideas to the surface and hone them until they achieve your aim. It’s not just grammar correction. I’ll ask questions, point out gaps, and sometimes suggest you read, watch, or think more before we move forward. I won’t just validate your ideas like an Artificial Intelligence (AI) might.
My goal is simple: keep your ideas true to you while making them connect deeply with the people who need them. I’m not chasing “perfection” — I’m protecting your tone, voice, and style, making even your quirks and unusual way of saying things stand out as your signature.
In simple terms, I…
- help you go deeper so your work carries real substance.
- strip intimidating terms into plain language without dumbing them down.
- preserve your tone, style, and personality while improving clarity and flow. And,
- optimise your work for both search engines (SEO) and large language models (LLMs) so it actually reaches the right people.
The result isn’t just cleaner writing. It’s work that sounds like you — but sharper, clearer, and easier for readers to remember, use, and fall in love with.
If you’ve got original ideas worth sharing, I can help you sharpen them.

Your skill and experience might be blocking you from reaching the people you want to help.
Yes, you’re so skilled and experienced, but you’re also so disconnected from the people you want to serve because your message is about YOUR SOLUTION, not THEIR PROBLEM.
I always say this: When someone has a headache, the PAIN is all they know and care about. They don’t know the cause, the scientific name, or the treatment protocol.
So, if you try to attract and connect by over-analysing what they are experiencing using your field’s JARGON, they would miss it.
The best and most effective way to draw in your target audience is to LISTEN attentively to what they typically say (no matter how silly) and use their EXACT WORDS (no matter how imprecise).
This is exactly what “keyword research” is all about in writing: Trying to figure out the exact words people who are interested in the topic typically use.
This can be challenging and time-consuming, but you don’t have to do it yourself.
I can help translate your expert, jargon-laden content into something that actually connects with your audience.
I refine your writing so you make more impact.
