Posted 4 quarters ago

Summary

Hello! I am seeking a skilled editor to help prepare a faith-based book and ministry content manuscript (approximately 300 pages) for publication. This project requires more than just proofreading—it involves careful restructuring and refinement to ensure clarity, flow, and impact. Specifically, I am looking for an editor who can: • Reorganize and Restructure Content: Read through the manuscript, identify connected ideas, and group them together to strengthen flow and coherence. • Refine for Readability: Assess the overall flow of the book so it remains clear, engaging, and spiritually compelling from start to finish. • Remove Redundancies: Eliminate unnecessary repetition while retaining the essence and potency of the message. If a repeated section contains new ideas, keep the valuable content while rewriting or trimming to avoid irritation for the reader. • Suggest Enhancements: Offer simple, practical suggestions for additional clarity or improvements, with final approval left to the author. • Formatting & Presentation: Write out Bible verses in full, place quotations in styled “quote boxes,” and ensure the text is arranged for readability and visual appeal. • Editing & Proofreading: Ensure grammar, punctuation, and sentence flow are polished and professional. Project Details: • Length: Approx. 300 pages • Timeline: 1 month • Budget: $300 (fixed price) If you have experience editing faith-based, inspirational, or non-fiction manuscripts—and a keen eye for both detail and big-picture structure—I’d love to hear from you.
