Non-Fiction Manuscript Preparation

Job ID: 40617082

Budget: £20 – £250 GBP

I need a professional to format and set up a Master Manuscript Document (.docx) for a non-fiction book that is nearly finished (currently at 90-95% completion).
​What I need:
​Creation of a clean, standardized Word template/master document following industry standards (Chicago Manual of Style / publisher guidelines).
​Proper paragraph styles setup (H1/H2 headings, body text, blockquotes, headers/footers, and page numbers).
​Clear structure so I can easily insert the final two chapters myself before sending it to a developmental editor.
​Basic manuscript prep and cleanup (consistent spacing, fonts, margins, and layout).
​Ideal Skills:
​Proven experience in book manuscript formatting and prep for authors/publishers.
​Advanced mastery of Microsoft Word styles and template design.
​Attention to detail and knowledge of editorial standards.
