Our Literary Lapses

Our Literary Lapses is a compelling collection of stories and poems written by seventeen authors all members of the Mariposa Writers' Group based in Orillia Ontario. With incredible skill they have woven tales of fantasy and fact and as we turn the pages we find ourselves transported from a hospital delivery room to dancing at a community hall to surviving in the wilderness and much much more! The authors have an amazing range of interests and abilities as they paint word pictures and breathe life into their work. At times we know we are in Canada while often we realize we have left this safe haven and are exploring unknown paths and places. We revisit the past poke fun at the present and open the door to the future. As we read we learn more about ourselves our daily lives our fears our failures and our dreams. Our Literary Lapses may bring tears to our eyes or laughter to our lips but we can be certain it will always bring the urge to turn the page and begin the next unusual exciting romantic or daring adventure.
