Syeda Zainab Z.

I help authors turn rough or finished manuscripts into professionally edited, beautifully formatted, publication-ready books for Amazon KDP, Kindle and IngramSpark. With $90K+ earned on Upwork, 150+ completed projects, Top Rated Plus status, and 100+ books edited, formatted and published, I provide authors with one point of contact from manuscript editing through final publishing files. My work includes line editing, copy editing, proofreading, book formatting, interior layout and typesetting, cover design, eBook formatting, Amazon KDP publishing, IngramSpark preparation, and publishing support. Several books I’ve worked on have reached #1 Amazon Best Seller and #1 New Release positions across multiple categories. I’ve also been credited in published books for my editing, formatting, interior design and illustration work. BOOK EDITING & PROOFREADING ✓ Line Editing – clarity, flow, readability, tone and voice ✓ Copy Editing – grammar, punctuation, syntax and consistency ✓ Proofreading – final manuscript and formatted-book review ✓ AI Content Humanization – refining AI-assisted manuscripts into natural, reader-friendly writing ✓ Developmental/Structural Editing – organisation, repetition, pacing and chapter flow ✓ Fact-Checking & Reference Review – where required I primarily edit nonfiction, business, self-help, personal development, wellness, educational and professional books. BOOK FORMATTING & INTERIOR DESIGN I create professional interiors for: ✓ Amazon KDP paperback and hardcover ✓ Kindle eBooks / EPUB ✓ IngramSpark print editions ✓ Nonfiction books ✓ Business books ✓ Workbooks and journals ✓ Lead magnets and downloadable PDFs Formatting can include chapter styling, typography, margins, headers and footers, page numbering, tables, figures, illustrations, front and back matter, clickable TOCs and print-ready PDFs. AMAZON KDP & SELF-PUBLISHING SUPPORT Need more than editing? I can manage the publishing process from manuscript to launch, including: ✓ Amazon KDP setup and publishing ✓ Paperback, hardcover and Kindle preparation ✓ IngramSpark preparation ✓ eBook/EPUB conversion ✓ ISBN and imprint guidance ✓ Amazon categories and keyword research ✓ Book descriptions and metadata ✓ Pricing and launch setup ✓ Cover and print-wrap preparation ✓ KDP Previewer and final-file QA ✓ Audiobook preparation and publishing support I have managed ongoing author projects where I oversee editing, formatting, cover preparation, metadata, Amazon publication and audiobook production/distribution rather than handling only one stage of the book. WHY AUTHORS HIRE ME ✓ One specialist for editing + formatting + publishing ✓ Extensive nonfiction and self-publishing experience ✓ Professional print and eBook deliverables ✓ Clear communication and collaborative revisions ✓ Fast response times ✓ Experience with both first-time and established authors ✓ Long-term support for authors publishing multiple books Tools: Adobe InDesign, Adobe Acrobat Pro, Microsoft Word, Google Docs, Kindle Previewer, Atticus/Vellum, Canva and professional editorial tools. If you have a manuscript that needs book editing, proofreading, KDP formatting, interior design or complete Amazon publishing support, send me a message or invite me to your project. I’m happy to review the scope and recommend the best route from manuscript to publication.
