Lyz Nagan – Ghostwriter

Nonfiction ghostwriter who loves bringing to life bold ideas that challenge the status quo. Plays well with entrepreneurs and executives.

Overview

I’m a seasoned ghostwriter with deep roots in both the arts and corporate communications. That mix of emotion and logic shows up in every project: I create content that hits the heart and the head. I collaborate best with bold thinkers who push boundaries and want to dig past the obvious to uncover ideas that truly move readers. With 15+ years of experience shaping thought leadership (articles, keynotes, newsletters, and more) and writing prescriptive nonfiction books, I bring a strong narrative style, grounded in real stories and lived insight. My focus areas include work culture, leadership, technology, entrepreneurship, art, and design.

Communication Principles:

- Every word matters, but their collective impact is what makes the difference.

- Usability and understandability are the keys to good content.

- Ego is old school. I don’t want to be a hero; I want to create great work.

I can:

- Ghostwrite non-fiction books that advance your business

- Curate your ideas and identify the ones with the potential to inform and engage

- Bring your ideas to life in multiple formats, so they resonate with your target audience

Work experience

Self-employed

I partner with authors to produce books, newsletters, blog posts, speeches, and more. Together we create an ecosystem of thought leadership to help their brand and businesses grow.

Clockwork

Sep, 2011 — Sep, 2019 (about 8 years)
I partnered with the C-suite team to create an award-winning brand by telling our work culture story, resulting in national attention and visibility. I developed on-point messaging and strategies to attract clients, partners, and employees, collaborating with cross-functional teams, and consulted directly with the CEO and COO. (This was when I discovered how much I loved working with executives!)
