Edit and Format Non-Fiction Book on Conservatorship
Budget: $15 – $25 USD
I'm seeking a developmental editor for my non-fiction book about conservatorship. The book is written by an attorney, so I need someone who can make it accessible and understandable to the general public. It's about 60,000 words. There are some chapters that are better than others. I need some formatting - double spaced, times new roman, so that I can submit to a publisher.
Key Responsibilities:
- Enhance the clarity and coherence of the text.
- Improve the overall structure and flow of the book.
- Ensure the writing is in a simplified, conversational style.
- Identify legalese that needs to be better explained.
Ideal Skills and Experience:
- Extensive experience in developmental editing, particularly with non-fiction.
- Ability to transform complex legal language into simplified, engaging prose.
- Strong understanding of book structure and flow.
- Excellent track record of enhancing clarity and coherence in authors' work.
