Tess marset

I write stories that explore individuals’ journeys as they face change, adversity, and growth in varied settings and situations. Creating these stories is a provocative challenge for me to step into scenarios and explore the question “How am I going to see my way through this?”

 

What we are, where we are from, or what we look like shouldn’t define what we feel and believe, or how we behave. The protagonists in my stories must discover their hidden strengths and potential as they progress along their paths.

 

But these journeys are not solo attempts by my protagonists. Instead they are influenced by my characters' interactions with others and the world around them. I believe we often underestimate our own abilities. Sometimes, it takes others to help us to understand our estimation of ourselves. In essence, who you believe yourself to be can be supported or shaped by another person’s belief in you.
