I've been wondering if there is a style guide or something similar to
consult when writing AppleScript to help in making scripts more readable.

Morning, Ken:
'Code Complete' by Steve McConnell is the Chicago Manual of Style, the
Strunk and White, of computer programming (as far as I've seen).
There is nothing in it that will address the peculiarities of
AppleScript's English-likeness, but there should still be plenty of
sound advice that will help you write readable, maintainable
code. If you haven't read it, I'd start there.
I do a lot of code maintenance on a business system that grew organically under several different programmers over a decade....
I commend you for thinking of your successors.....
