Home / About Our Story

Built where publishing craft meets press strategy

Bold Words Media Partners LLC started as a small editorial shop helping independent authors polish their manuscripts, and grew into a full publishing, media, and PR agency without losing that editorial care.

Who We Are

Editors first, publicists second

We are a publishing and communications team that believes a story earns coverage by being well told first. Every engagement starts with an editorial read before a single pitch goes to press.

  • Editorial, media relations, and publicity under one roof
  • Clear monthly reporting on placements, sentiment, and reach
  • Direct access to the editor and account lead on your project
Milestones

How we got here

A short version of a longer story, told through the moments that shaped how we work.

2013

An editorial shop of two

Bold Words opened with a single mission: help independent authors turn a manuscript into a publishable, sellable book.

2016

Media relations joins the practice

Authors kept asking who would tell people the book existed, so we built a press and media relations arm in-house.

2019

Brand clients arrive

Founders and consumer brands began asking for the same editorial rigor we brought to books, applied to their press materials.

2022

Crisis communications formalized

After guiding a client through a difficult news cycle, we built structured crisis response into every retainer.

2026

180+ titles and campaigns

Today we support authors, publishers, and brands with editorial strategy, media placement, and reputation management under one team.

"We edit first, pitch second. A well-told story is easier to place than a loud one."

What We Value

The principles behind every project

Editorial honesty

Every press release, byline, and pitch reflects your work exactly as it is, never oversold.

Direct accountability

One named editor and account lead per client, reachable throughout the engagement.

Measured results

Coverage, sentiment, and reach are reported monthly, not left to guesswork.
