Professional Editor for a Non-Fiction Manuscript

Book Editor & Layout Designer Wanted I’m looking for a talented editor and book designer to help bring my manuscript to life. This isn’t a dry business manual or an academic textbook. It’s a practical, thought provoking book that blends strategy, mindset and real world wisdom into something readers will want to highlight, dog ear and return to again and again. What I Need I’m looking for someone who can: • Professionally edit the manuscript for clarity, flow, grammar and readability. • Suggest improvements where sections feel repetitive, unclear or could be stronger. • Create a clean, premium interior layout ready for print and eBook publication. • Design chapter openers and page layouts that feel modern, engaging and easy to read. • Format the final files for platforms such as Amazon KDP and IngramSpark. The Book The manuscript is approximately 50,000 words. The tone is direct, practical and easy to read. Think less corporate handbook and more trusted mentor sharing hard earned lessons. What I’m Looking For Someone who: • Has experience editing and formatting non fiction books. • Can show examples of previous published work. • Has a good eye for typography and layout. • Understands how to create a book that looks as good as it reads. • Communicates clearly and enjoys collaborating. When Applying Please begin your proposal with the words: “Win Before You Begin” This helps me identify applicants who have taken the time to read the brief properly. Please also send: • Examples of books you’ve edited and/or designed. • A brief overview of your experience. • Your estimated timeline. • Your quote for the project. • Your favourite non fiction book and why. I’m looking for quality over speed and would love to find someone who genuinely enjoys helping authors create great books. AI generated applications and generic copy and paste responses will be ignored. I look forward to hearing from you.
