Lt.Commander Mollie Sanders

Submitted by Joyce Faulkner on May 11, 2013 - 04:14

Lt. Commander Mollie Sanders is an over achiever. Reminiscent of Steve McGarrett of Hawaii Five-0, the woman is brainy, brawny, and bold. She excels in technology, languages, weapons, strategy, and fighting -- and dabbles in everything else.

I'm pleased to report that the Association of Independent Authors has chosen to feature me as their "Author in the Spotlight" for the month of May. There may not be anything in the article that members here do not already know, but it does give a small shout-out to MWSA, which pleases me.

Official Photo 25th Annual Literary Feast

In the latest Dispatches I wrote about the great experience I had at Fort Lauderdale as one of the authors participating in the Broward County Public Library Foundation's Literary Feast. The organization is wonderful and was informed that they raised $170,000 for the county's public library system, the seventh largest in the nation.

Here's the official photo of all the authors. I'm in the last row, fourth from the right.

Zarbul Masalha 151 Afghan Dari Proverbs

Title: Zarbul Masalha 151 Afghan Dari Proverbs
Author: Captain Edward Zellem
Genre: Non Fiction, Reference
Reviewer: Bob Doerr

ISBN (links go to the MWSA Amazon store): 1475093926

Captain Edward Zellem has served as a United States Navy officer for 25 years. A trained Dari speaker, he worked side-by-side with Afghans every day for a year and a half in Kabul and Kandahar, including a year inside Afghanistan's Presidential Palace. While in Afghanistan he collected and used Dari Proverbs every day in his professional life, in the streets and back alleys of Kabul, and in other parts of the country.

He became fascinated by the colorfulness and cultural relevancy of Dari Proverbs, and began collecting, translating and transliterating them into English. After art students at a Kabul high school created illustrations, his collection became "Zarbul Masalha: 151 Afghan Dari Proverbs."
