40-Page Manuscript Proof-Edit

Job ID: 39917178

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

My 40-page manuscript is ready for a fresh set of expert eyes. I need someone who can do more than fix commas—I’m looking for a meticulous editor who can reshape the main body to read smoothly while preserving my voice.

What I need you to do
• Polish narrative and descriptive flow throughout, with special attention to the central chapters where the story feels uneven.
• Correct grammar, syntax, and word choice, maintaining an academic yet engaging tone.
• Verify every in-text citation and reference entry against APA 7 guidelines, updating formatting where needed.

Deliverables
1. A clean, publication-ready file.
2. A tracked-changes version showing every modification.
3. Inline comments explaining any substantial rewrites or citation fixes.

Tools & expertise
Microsoft Word (Track Changes), deep familiarity with APA 7, and native-level command of English narrative prose are essential.

To be considered
Please attach a brief, detailed project proposal outlining your approach, estimated turnaround, and two samples of similar work you have edited. I look forward to collaborating with someone who can elevate the manuscript without losing its heart.
