1 y separately published work icon Snippets of Life Mavis Parsons , Frankston : Mavis Parsons , 2016 18862833 2016 selected work short story 'This book contains a selection of short stories and poetry written over almost 40 years.Snippets of life that lend themselves to being absorbed over a morning coffee or afternoon tea.This is for those times when you may not want to delve into a larger volume, but rather read a complete piece, in the small amount of time that you have to spare.In this collection you will find true stories and poetry, in which some names may have been changed, as well as fictional. Any resemblance to any person living or dead, in the fictional stories and poems is purely coincidental.It is my hope that there is something in here for everyone and that the reader will take something positive from this collection, that will remain with them long after they have read these Snippets of Life.'
