About Me — Bruce Kasanoff
I’m Bruce Kasanoff, a short-form ghostwriter. I co-create newsletter articles, essays and social media posts for entrepreneurs, consultants and coaches.
I’m fortunate to be one of the most visible ghostwriters in the world, with over 800,000 followers on LinkedIn.
You probably found me through LinkedIn, where I publish three newsletters:
Mountain Minute offers quick tips on how to succeed by doing good
Distill the Real You helps you get closer to the person you are meant to be
Bend Your Reality is a monthly deep dive into more growth and meaning
I also send an occasional update to people I know personally. It’s called Bend Reality.
My life has been incredibly enriched ever since I became a member of Marshall Goldsmith's 100 Coaches program, and I fully embrace its mandate to be of the greatest possible service to others (here’s my personal credo).
