Karyn Johnson | Writer, Editor, & Proofreader

I’m a former military spouse who was fortunate to spend 4 years in Germany, 4 years in Seattle, and 4 years in the D.C. area before my husband retired from the Air Force. I started a blog in Germany to keep a record of our travels. That led to offers to write travel guides and articles for pay.

I graduated with a B.A. in English from The Ohio State University (Go Bucks!) and an M.S. in Marketing and Communication from Franklin University. However, the greatest education I’ve received has been through my travels — the people I’ve been lucky to meet and the incredible experiences I’ve had.

I am an avid reader, foodie, gardener, and cook. In fact, it’s my love of gardening that inspired the name Words in Bloom.

We live on 5+ acres just south of Columbus, Ohio, with Blitz, our elderly Aussie Shepherd mix, and a variety of birds, frogs, snakes, and woodland creatures.

I blog about life in the country and other topics. Check out my Linktree to find me elsewhere on the internet.
