Dave Munger

Given his own lofty assessment of his talents, Dave Munger hasn't accomplished nearly what he thinks he's capable of. His published works, which include college textbooks and newspaper articles, have frequently been the subjects of effusive praise (especially by the author). Dave seeks to continue that tradition at the WordMunger Web site by presenting writing with characteristic cocky self-assurance. Whether his writing reveals his self-described "sharp wit" and "keen analytical mind" is a matter of opinion.

Buoyed by an inflated confidence in his writing skills, Dave tossed away nine years of work building a moderately successful editing and design firm to pursue a career as a writer. After spending "over an hour" perfecting a style he has termed "sheer genius," Dave launched the WordMunger site in January of 2001 to showcase his work.

Dave is committed to writing a new column for WordMunger as a free public service "every so often, or until someone offers me big bucks for syndication rights." Though currently pursuing several other projects, Dave is "not above setting them aside to do a high-profile sitcom or screenplay." He is, however, unwavering in his demand to continue to work at home: he feels it is important to be near his children (and his big-screen TV, and his espresso machine, and his refrigerator).

Never one to back away from shameless self-promotion, Dave has posted his resume here.
