 I hail from a town called Harmony with a booming population of 75 people, three million chickens, several dogs, and my two imaginary friends. After I graduated from Salisbury University (in my home state of Maryland) with an Art degree, my traveling lifestyle began. I have lived all over the States and even two other countries (Romania and Hungary). I've visited all 50 states, lots of countries, and 6 continents. I'm holding at 6 continents - with no desire to add Antarctica to the mix. I love people, art, story, and travel. I guess my ideal day involves swapping stories with a friend at a sunny café outside an art gallery in an exotic foreign locale, while drinking a frothy latte.
After 21 years as a missionary, I fulfilled my childhood dream and wrote my debut book, We Wait You. I've also contributed short stories to two Chicken Soup books and published over 25 articles. My husband and I have recently relocated from the bustling San Francisco Bay area to a sleepy town in North Carolina. I've come full circle, minus the imaginary friends, that is.
When I married for the first time in my forties, two challenges faced me. First, after a lifetime of having my name Taryn misspelled, now no one can spell my last name either. (Hint: Hutchison is missing an "n.") Second, I've beaten all my friends by being the first to become a grandmother - in a record seven years of matrimony. I have two adult stepchildren and two baby granddaughters.
