“Lisa Hagan is the most wonderful, supportive, uplifting and empowering friend/agent anyone could dream of having on their team. I first came in contact with her through a friend of a friend’s referral, and sent her my book proposal for The Wealthy Spirit. She called me the next day and said, ‘I’m on page twelve and I would love to represent you!’ We signed the contracts that day, and the search for my publisher began.

“It was a long search. Rejections were many, ‘almost deals’ were several, and hopes rose only to be dashed again for a year and a half. Lisa never gave up on me and never gave up on my book. We became fast friends and email buddies, always lifting each other up and giving each other hope when things looked bleakest. Her belief in me never wavered, even when mine did. When I told my friends in my writer’s group about her, they looked at each other, then back at me. ‘Are you sure she’s a real agent?’ they asked. ‘She sounds too nice!’ I laughed because I knew I had been blessed with someone very special. Through her persistence and determination, Lisa found the perfect editor and publisher for my book, negotiated the best possible deal, and today The Wealthy Spirit is in bookstores across the nation.

“Lisa Hagan is my cherished friend and the best agent an author could have. I love her!”
--Chellie Campbell

"Since February 1998, Lisa Hagan has been my literary agent. Before then I was dealing with representation worthy of every Catskill joke about the horrors of agents!

"In these past (almost five) years, with enthusiasm, kindness, and great persistence, Lisa has helped me every step of the way to publishing my first book, Love Letters, the Romantic Secrets Hidden in our Handwriting. This was not an easy road, with among other things, the previous publisher going bankrupt in the month that the book was due to be published!

"Lisa remained undeterred. Never once during our working association was Lisa less than a joy to deal with. She has always managed to give the unhurried impression that one¹s book is of the utmost importance to her and for that reason I look forward to a long and productive relationship."
--Paula Roberts

"Lisa Hagan has a gift of insight and looks to the future of a project for the end result. Not many people hold that vision."
--Jonathan Pfeiffer, Client

“Well, you've heard of Michael Korda, Nan A. Telese and all those publishing greats, but you may not know of the hidden treasure of them all: Lisa Hagan of Paraview. This woman will be known, in publishing years to come, as The One Who Could Get It Done. Forget those people who say it's a tough sell, those wishy-washy types who say in a whimpering tone that ‘We can't find the right editor, the publisher, the audience for this book.’ Lisa can. Actually, that's the message here: Lisa can.

"In a writing world where support seems to be in short supply, especially after the long run spent writing a book, what a writer needs is a person who can critically look at a piece of work, make constructive suggestions, develop strategies to take the whole of the work and make it ready for four or five editors who don't even realize this is what they are searching for. This will fill their list, float their boat, and make heroes out of you and your critically supportive agent, Lisa Hagan."
