Fitness/Wellness Nonfiction Book Editing

I'm looking for an experienced editor to polish a completed 95-page fitness book: *Simple Military Calisthenics for Women*, a beginner-friendly, no-equipment home workout guide structured as a 30-day program.
• *Scope of Work:**

- Proofread for grammar, spelling, and punctuation errors throughout the full manuscript

- Refine tone and phrasing to sound natural, warm, and conversational — the book is written for everyday women and should feel human and approachable, not stiff or formulaic

- Light copy editing where sentences feel awkward or overly repetitive
• *What I'm NOT looking for:**

- Structural rewrites or content changes

- Changes to the workout programs, exercise descriptions, or chapter organization

- Heavy developmental editing
• *Project Details:**

- Format: PDF (will share Google Doc or Word file for tracked changes)

- Length: ~95 pages / approx. 20,000 words

- Budget: $125 fixed price

- Deadline: Turnaround within 2 days of project start
• *Ideal Candidate:**

- Experience editing health, fitness, wellness, or self-help books

- Comfortable identifying and softening AI-assisted writing to sound more natural

- Detail-oriented with strong grasp of grammar and style consistency

- Able to meet a tight deadline reliably

Please include a brief note about your editing experience and, if possible, a sample of previous work in a similar genre. Proposals without a short intro will not be considered.

Looking forward to working with you!
