According to Mrs, Ramsey's collumn, the Mennonites (which based on the article are a religous group) embrace the arts by making quilts, performing, etc. Click here to see the article. The best written line in my opinion is, "It's an image to which many Americans can't relate. That's one reason why Mennonite artists like Stoltzfus relish this weekend, the chance to explore such thoughts with others of their faith" (Ramsey). The first sentence of the line is much more to the point than the second. However, the second sentence is a lot more thought provoking. Her writing style is written directly to the reader to make them feel not only like an observer (like in most novels) but almost conversation like. "You see it all the time" (Ramsey).
If I could ask her three questions they would be:
1) What seperates you and your style of writing from other journalists and columnists
2) Have ever written in any other genres before and if so what were they
3) How do you choose what to write about?
