Quotes by Gerri R. Gray  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“I have a knack for finding humor in all sorts of things, no matter how grim. My sense of humor is wry and a bit on the warped side. (Well, more than a bit, depending on whom you ask.)”
Gerri R. Gray

“I adore the absurd and the abnormal; therefore, that's what I write about. That's what I need to write about. The mainstream has never turned me on.”
Gerri R. Gray, Gray Skies of Dismal Dreams

“Dark humor and sarcasm always seem to find their way into my writing, which isn’t surprising, given that I live and breathe dark humor, and sarcasm is one of the languages in which I’m fluent.”
Gerri R. Gray
