Speedy writer (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

swift

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'speedy' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'writer' is the second definition.
(Jonathan Swift, 1667-1745)

(Other definitions for swift that I've seen before include "Swallow-like bird" , "Fleet" , "Quick - writer" , "Bird; happening quickly" , "Anglo-Irish satirist" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
