Preparation of the book for printing
229 USD Book Status:
The book has undergone the first author editing. It is currently in the stage of preparation for layout and final proofreading.
🔍 Work Objective:
To obtain a professional external perspective and bring the text to a final readable, structurally coherent, and stylistically polished state before printing.
✅ Main Tasks:
Light substantive editing of the entire text:
check how logically and clearly the narrative is structured;
pay attention to the coherence between chapters, especially in transitions from personal stories to the expert part;
maintain the author's style and "live" voice, but remove any overload if present.
Simplifying expert blocks:
the book is built on alternating stories and explanations from the perspective of architectural psychology;
expert inserts are sometimes cumbersome — we want to make them simpler, more accessible for a wider audience, possibly through imagery, metaphors, or rhythmic delivery.
Strengthening the ending:
currently, the ending of the book is perceived as "flat" — a more vivid, inspiring, or emotionally strong conclusion is needed;
we would appreciate suggestions on how to enhance the conclusion both logically and emotionally.
Composition:
table of contents — layout-friendly and readable;
book annotation — for the back cover/promotion;
Final proofreading after layout:
check the layout for typographical and spelling errors;
proofreading before sending the book to print.
🕓 Deadlines:
Ideal start: as soon as possible.
Layout is planned in the next 1–2 weeks, final proofreading — immediately after.
We are ready to discuss an individual work pace.
