The Impassioned Writers

We officially introduce BN-W's The Impassioned Writers column, which will feature essays by several writers on a regular basis.  Because we can't cover every issue and subject, we found some writers who are willing to write about their passion (sports, arts, history, and the like) with the knowledge, dedication, enthusiasm, and love that will "educate to empower" us and our readers.  A nice, warm welcome to The Impassioned Writers...
