About Me

Hey there—I’m Nick Fagen, a writer, storyteller, and (proud) professional overthinker who’s been putting words to paper since Kindergarten and never really stopped.

These days, I manage social strategy with Paul Gregory Media while also partnering with nonprofits, conservation orgs, local businesses, and national brands on storytelling projects that grow audiences and build genuine connection. Before that, I led content and campaigns as Head of Storytelling & Marketing at LW&CO.

Over the years, I’ve worked with organizations like the Navy SEAL Foundation, Golden Apple Foundation, DuPage Foundation, Hoover Institution, Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative, and The Florida Aquarium. I also published my first book, A Moment in Time (2022), followed by a second edition and hardcover later that year—and my next book, Bittersweet State of Mind, is slated for release in 2026.

📝 A Few Things About Me

  • Writing has always been my thing—I’ve been at it since before I even knew what a career was.

  • Movies, TV, sci-fi, and pop culture? Big-time nerd.

  • Baseball, music, and deep conversations? Always in.

  • I believe words have power—to inspire, to connect, and to remind us we’re not alone.

At the end of the day, I believe stories matter. Whether you’re here to read, collaborate, or simply explore, I’m grateful you stopped by.

About Me

Pretty Picture

Hey there! I'm Nick Fagen—a writer and storyteller based in Chicagoland.

I've been writing for as long as I can remember. What started as something I loved doing eventually became a career, but I've never really stopped writing simply because I enjoy it.

This blog is where I share the thoughts, stories, and ideas that don't quite fit anywhere else.

Whether you stumbled across one post or decided to stay awhile, I'm glad you're here.
