"Valentine: Short Love Poems" is the latest release by author Corrine De Winter. The short, lyrical passages sometimes reflect the dark side of love, other times the sensual, the beautiful, the soulful, but always the truth. A member of the Horror Writer's Association, an organization that includes such luminaries as Stephen King, Clive Barker and Joyce Carol Oates, Corrine De Winter's collection The Women At The Funeral was the winner of the 2004 Bram Stoker Award, the most prestigious award that a horror genre writer can receive, and was published by Space & Time Press. A new collection Tango In The 9th Circle will be published this year by Dark Regions Press. De Winter's poems are a haunting mix of myth, dark sensuality and the sinister leanings of fairy tales. Her poetry has been called "Exquisite" by William Peter Blatty, author of The Exorcist. Widely published in literary magazines, journals and horror genre publications and anthologies, De Winter has won numerous awards including those from The New York Quarterly, Writer's Digest, The Mochila Review, Triton College of Arts & Sciences, The Rhysling Award (Science Fiction Writer's Association) and TV Guide. "Yes, my writing leans toward the dark side, but it also speaks to the heart and the psyche." says De Winter.
