I recently released my debut fiction novel on Amazon, but I’m aware that a sharper eye can still improve its polish. I’m looking for a professional editor who can focus on three specific areas: correcting grammar and punctuation, and adjusting the interior formatting so the paperback version meets Amazon’s guidelines.
What I need
• Meticulous line-by-line edits for grammar, spelling, and punctuation
• Subtle formatting tweaks—margins, paragraph indents, headers/footers, page numbers—so the file is accepted by KDP in paperback mode
• Preservation of my existing page and chapter layout; the book’s structure and design should remain recognisably mine
Deliverables
1. A clean, print-ready manuscript (Word or PDF) that passes Amazon’s paperback upload checks
2. A tracked-changes version showing every grammatical and punctuation correction
3. A brief change log summarising any formatting adjustments you made
The manuscript is already complete at roughly 83,000 words and has been on sale, so I’m not asking for developmental feedback or major rewrites—just the professional finishing touches that will make the paperback edition error-free and compliant.
If you’re comfortable working in MS Word, familiar with Amazon KDP’s paperback specs, and can turn this around efficiently, I’d love to send you the file and get started.
