Benchmark Press

Benchmark Press Benchmark Press is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Benchmark Public Relations. This would enable authors to concentrate on the area they enjoyed most — writing.

It was founded in 2006 to provide contract book publishing services to businesses and individuals. The company started after Benchmark Public Relations wrote and developed a number of corporate histories for organizations such as the Roadbuilders and Heavy Construction Association of Saskatchewan, the Saskatchewan Amateur Speed Skating Association, the Saskatchewan Cycling Association, and the Cro

wn Investments Corporation of Saskatchewan. It had also provided research and writing for a variety of textbooks in the Canadian, American and British school systems. With this experience, the company’s partners decided to embark upon a new venture, Benchmark Press, to assist people and businesses to publish their books. In researching the marketplace, the partners realized that there was a limited number of options for people and businesses that wanted to tell their story. Traditionally, there have been a small number of printers who only provided printing services. With experience in publishing and a background in public relations, the partners felt that Benchmark Press could provide a complete array of publishing services ranging from editing and proofreading to marketing and retailing. By providing an à la carte service, customers could pick and choose the services they most required. Since its inception, Benchmark Press has published dozens of works and given a voice to new writers. Benchmark Press continues to expand its stable of writers and offers support as they undertake new book projects and initiatives.

WRITING NORTH X RIVER VOLTA READER PROFILE: With roots in New Brunswick and Saskatchewan, Karen Wood recently completed her Masters of Fine Arts (MFA) in Writing at the University of Saskatchewan. Her MFA project, Inheritance, is a linked short story collection of eight fictional narratives of lives impacted by interpersonal violence and abuse. Karen’s creative writing is fueled by a commitment to address gendered violence and informed by her years of related experience in both research and community practice. Karen delights in the extraordinary capacity of artistic expression to create space for social and political engagement, activism, and change.

Woods will be reading from her work on January 27, 2023. More details to come!

Join us at Writing North 13: Connections on January 26-28, 2023. All Writing North events are free and open to all!
