I will format your manuscript for publisher submission
Sky
About this gig
Finished your draft but not sure it's ready to send anywhere yet? Before you query an agent or submit to a publisher, your manuscript needs to look like standard manuscript format expects clean font, correct spacing, proper title page, consistent chapters or it risks getting set aside before anyone reads your writing.
I format manuscripts to industry standard: 12pt Times New Roman, double spacing, correct margins, proper title page, running header, and consistent chapter/scene breaks throughout. This is the foundation every agent and publisher expects, whether you already know where you're submitting or you're still deciding.
What you get:
- Full industry standard formatting (font, spacing, margins, title page)
- Consistent chapter and scene break formatting
- Clean, submission ready .docx file
- A manuscript that's ready the moment you decide where to send it
