Hello

Oh, hey there, what’s up? I see you found your way to the About Me section of my website, so I guess you must be curious about who I am. Well, here you go:


My name is Michael, but since there are a billion Michaels in the United States alone, I tend to go by my last name Fegan. I’m a writer, a doodler, a man that enjoys fiction (which I didn’t realize was a rare thing, what?), a history podcast enjoyer, a football (soccer) obsessive, a skateboarder, a dog dad, a partner to the most amazing woman in the world, and for work, I’m a copywriter. I was fortunate enough to be raised on The Simpsons and SNL movies (Shwing! Superstar!), which has had an permanent impact on both my personality and my world view.


Before advertising I had a long and illustrious career as a pizza delivery driver. I eventually traded in my car keys for a tool belt and tried my hand at construction — single handedly removing trash and sweeping dust from job sites all over the Texas Hill Country (actually, just two job sites to be exact). There is a bronze statue of me outside of the Jiffy Lube in Rollingwood, TX, commemorating my time there (not really, but there should be). Legends of my tire changing ability are still told around the parts counter at Goodyear. I’ve had the honor of cleaning dishes in some of the most forgotten about restaurants, flipped burgers, pushed energy drinks at grocery stores and dazzled with my dairy stocking ability. I’m not exactly sure how, but I will make use out of all this random experience some day.


I believe to make the best work you need a human truth (like how everyone hates hearing “I told you so”), said in the stupidest way possible (a panda bear wearing a bikini riding a unicycle, maybe?). I also believe to make great work, you need to enjoy the people you’re around.

Nice to meet you. Let’s make cool shit together.
