     So obsessed is she with the beauty of romance and the novelty of creating it that she’s lost in her own wonder world most of the time. Thankfully, she's married to her own dark, handsome, brooding hero who had infinite patience for her airy ways and attempts to keep her grounded.  They now reside in Florida with their 3 beautiful children who make their lives both fun and challenging in equal parts.They wouldn’t have it any other way.  www.ditterkellen.com/dittercon.html

  • The Road from Morocco by Wafa Faith Hallam, Part 2
    Wafa returns to continue sharing her life story that begins in Morocco, with her mother, as she is married off at 13 to a man she does not know or love.  The true tale continues, weaving through varied countries, religions, economic states, romantic trysts, lusts, and loves. It transports readers back in time to a Middle Eastern society far removed from modern American sensibilities.  In today's hour-long episode, we will raise the issue of Wafa's identity as an Arab-American Muslim who, particularly found it difficult to share particularly following 9/11 and the Iraq War. As diffiult as it is, Wafa considers her speaking about it as a sort of "coming out" process.
