Hello! My name is Kimberly Laughlin.
I am the sole proprietor of PEN in HAND Services and all of its divisions.
My services are professional, high-quality, personable, accessible, and affordable, which is evidenced in my many excellent client reviews.
I am a professional...
• Resume Writer, Editor, and Reviser
• Document Editor
• Book Editor, which requires a professional Line Editor / Proofreader, Copy Editor (Copyeditor), and Copy Formatter such as me.
• Tax Preparer for Simple Tax Returns, in the process of obtaining certification for complex tax returns.
• Graphic Designer and Visual Artist, designing digital invitations and e-cards.
I am able to juggle it all so far but hope to get so busy that I need to hire qualified help.
As I stated earlier, I have established a few subdivisions within PEN in HAND Services that, I believe, all go hand in hand very nicely, and I am making them work affordably and proficiently for my clients.
In fact, I have special accomplishments to show for since I started my business.
Awards and Special Accomplishments
A) My name got mentioned in a book's acknowledgments as a contributing editor of a novel by Kenneth Richmond called A Time for Courage that was published in 2023. This is an excerpt of the review he posted on this website:
"After conducting an extensive search of nearly thirty-five professional editors to work on my novel and keeping this project within my budget, I selected Kimberly. Working with her was a lot of fun—she was prompt, thorough, and conscientious... I relied heavily on her advice to make my novel better than I could have ever imagined. As a novice in this novel writing business, Kimberly was very patient with me and always made herself available via phone conversation, which is rare in many professions today. I was extremely impressed with the quick turnaround on the seventeen chapters I submitted to her for line and copyediting. If you’re looking for a seasoned, industrious editor with integrity, I strongly recommend Kimberly Laughlin. She’s the BEST!"
B) Nextdoor, which is a social networking service for neighborhoods, issued me these awards in 2024:
• "Visual Artist Award" for Kimberly's Graphic Designs (KGD).
• "Neighborhood Faves" for PEN in HAND Services, and
C) Also in 2024, I produced a resume for a nice man in Pakistan, which was my first international project.

My Best Book Editing Work
I was a contributing editor to the novel A Time for Courage by Kenneth Richmond. He mentioned my name as one of his editors in his acknowledgments.
This was my review for his book:
"This book is enthralling and well written—it makes you feel like you are right there in the midst of the events that take place, as the surroundings and happenings of the events are so graphic, you can actually hear and see the details as if you were watching a movie. The characters are intriguing and portrayed so vividly that you come to know each one, keeping you in suspense about their outcome as much as the gripping writing keeps you in suspense about the conclusion of the story. I think anyone would enjoy this book, but it is especially ideal for war buffs like me."
In fact, he gave me an excellent review for the editing I did for him to get his novel publishable. I think it is a great story about how we worked together to get it all done. You can read all about it, along with his review, by clicking on the following link:
