Professional Book Editing, Formatting & Cover Design ready for Amazon publishing

Description:

I’m looking for an experienced book editor and designer to transform my completed manuscript (120+ pages) into a fully polished, publication-ready book for Amazon (KDP). Should be mirrored after the SAT, LSAT and MCAT books (official guidebooks).

This is NOT just basic proofreading — I need a professional, end-to-end finish that meets commercial publishing standards.

Scope of Work:

1. Editing

* Full professional editing (clarity, flow, tone)
* Improve readability and structure where needed
* Ensure consistency across the entire book

2. Formatting for Amazon KDP:

* Proper formatting for Kindle (eBook) and paperback
* Clean layout, spacing, headings, table of contents
* Ensure compliance with Amazon KDP requirements
* Deliver files ready for direct upload

3. Cover Design (Based on Existing Mockup):

* I already have a rough cover concept/mockup (based on SAT book)
* You will redesign it to look fully professional and market-ready
* Front, spine, and back cover (paperback)
* Optimized for Amazon standards and high conversion

Deliverables:

* Final edited manuscript (Word + PDF)
* Kindle-ready file (EPUB or KDP format)
* Print-ready paperback file (PDF)
* Professional cover design (source files included)

Ideal Candidate:

* Proven experience editing books (please share samples)
* Experience publishing or preparing books for Amazon KDP
* Strong design skills for book covers
