I have a memoir manuscript sitting at roughly 20–50k words that now needs a meticulous line edit. The big-picture structure is locked, so I’m looking for someone who can focus on sentence-level polish—tightening prose, smoothing transitions, correcting grammar and punctuation, and making sure the voice stays consistent from first page to last.

You’ll be working in Word (Track Changes on) so I can review every adjustment. Alongside the marked-up file, I’d appreciate a concise style sheet noting recurring choices in spelling, punctuation, and any light fact queries you flagged. A clean, “ready-to-share” version should round out the hand-off.

Deliverables:
• Manuscript with all edits visible in Track Changes
• One-page style sheet / editorial notes
• Final clean manuscript incorporating approved edits

If you have solid experience line editing memoir or other narrative non-fiction, I’d love to see a sample of your past work. Turnaround of two to three weeks would be ideal, but let me know what timeline you can confidently meet.
