I have been reading Betsy Reason for a number of years and have always admired her writing style.  Writing a column is a particular niche in the world of journalism.

Some reporters can write about any subject handed to them, but give them a feature or column to write and they get writer’s block.

Betsy now edits and writes for The Times newspaper here in Hamilton County.  She has just been honored by the Hoosier State Press Association in the small newspaper division for her writing skills.

According to a story in The Times, three columns were judged as first place winners.
They are:

–Do your research before voting on election day

–Details shared from campaign finance reports

–Thousands flock to Eagles concert.

It has been years since our paths have crossed.  After all, Betsy covers Noblesville and I cover Fishers.  But the few times we have chatted have been good conversations and I remember them well.

Allow me to congratulate Betsy on another set of awards to hang on the wall.  They are all well deserved!
