In my experience, a grant writer is not much use for "science" or other
disciplinary-specialized research proposal (90% of what VCU does), but can
be quite good at putting together proposals for institutionsl projects.
Only the researcher can communicate both the technical detail and the
enthusiasm needed to sell a research proposal -- though a review/edit for
communication can sometimes help.
