Quotes
Incorporating humour into my writing is very important to me. Life can be complicated, frustrating and all too often tragic. The world would be a dismal place without it. My aim is to capture the fragility of human emotion and coat it with humour. Humour doesn't take away the anguish, but it makes it more bearable. Tessa Barrie — Tessa Barrie —
