Non-Fiction Manuscript Preparation
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.
