Free-Verse Poetry eBook Enhancement
Description
I have drafted a collection of free-verse poems that explore human emotions and relationships in all their messy, intimate detail, and now I want the language to truly sing on the page. Your task XXXX XXXX take my raw manuscript and carry out a deep linguistic adaptation—tightening the flow, enriching diction, smoothing transitions, and ensuring the tone remains consistent from the opening verse to the final line break.
Scope • Refine approximately 8,000–10,000 words of poetry without imposing rigid meter or rhyme; the free-verse form must stay intact. • Preserve my personal voice while heightening imagery, sensory depth, and emotional resonance. • Flag any passages that feel redundant or unclear and suggest stronger alternatives. • Standardise punctuation and formatting for eBook distribution (EPUB + clean Word file). • Provide a brief editorial overview explaining your key changes and stylistic choices.
Acceptance Criteria The final manuscript should read fluidly on both mobile and tablet eReaders, maintain a cohesive narrative arc around love, loss, and connection, and return with tracked changes plus a polished, publication-ready copy.
If you have a strong portfolio in contemporary poetry editing—or you write it yourself—I’d love to see how you can elevate this work. Rate: EUR 12–18/hr Skills: Proofreading, Editing, Publishing, eBooks, Book Writing, Poetry, Creative Writing, Copy Editing
