GENERAL EDITING
Editing is like house painting. Most of us could do a passable job of it if we had the time,
but that would take up hours better spent on our strong suits.
A trained editor knows how to wake up tired prose and simplify overwrought phrases.
A skilled editor shapes words into effective communication.
EDITING & COPYWRITING FOR BUSINESS & INSTITUTIONS
We have written, edited, and designed business brochures, informational pamphlets, mission statements, form letters, instructions, corporate histories, and dozens of other projects.
FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES
Family and community histories hold a special place at Bear Press Editorial.
Our editors and writers can help at any stage, from the first research to the last light polish.
NONFICTION
Journalism, cookbooks, religious statements, and many other specialized tasks can always use a fresh eye. Bear Press editors help readers find a foothold on the slippery slopes of language.
Whether the recipe is for bread or belief, we will sharpen its expression.
FICTION
Novels, short stories, and scripts require a deft touch. Here individual style must shine through,
yet often the writer can't see the flaws.
Our editors know fiction from the viewpoints of both author and audience.
We can help.
GHOSTWRITING
A ghostwriter brings out the eloquence in your ideas.
Whether it's a speech, story, sermon, or memoir, we will turn your inspirations into words.
ADVERTISING & MARKETING
Selling is the key to every enterprise.
Bear Press editors have created text, layouts, and entire campaigns.
We've written thousands of ads. We can serve as copywriters, and/or consultants.
Just e-mail us, and tell us what you need. We have packages for any budget.
EXECUTIVE CORE
QUALIFICATIONS
Among the most specialized arts in building resumes is that of writing and editing the Executive Core Qualifications statements in applications for the best federal jobs.
Bear Press editors know the hiring process from the inside, and can cast a career in its best light.
LEGAL EDITING
We all joke about lawyers until we need one- and a good lawyer
often needs the expertise of a good legal editor.
At Bear Press we have this expertise.
