I have twelve short-stories in one document file in Microsoft Word to be checked for accuracy on formatting before submission day on July 30. Double spacing throughout is correct, with first line paragraph indentation of half an inch set through your paragraph settings rather than the tab key or spaces, as manual tabs tend to scatter once a file moves between systems. One inch margins on all sides, text aligned left with a ragged right edge rather than justified, and a header carrying my surname alongside the collection title with page numbers running continuously; double-checking for stray overrides or hidden style quirks that could throw the layout off when the printer runs its proof. Please work directly in the .docx originals and return clean, publication-ready versions. Final delivery: I’ll release payment the moment all twelve stories within this document open with perfectly matched margins and indents.
