Winters Demon is the titular epic in Victor Venhuizen’s debut poetry collection. Rather than a common theme, it is a collection of stories and ideas that moves from an alternate origin of our four seasons through to depression and a day at the beach, to finally come to rest at the beckoning call of a warm bed on a cold day.

This beautiful and diverse collection of poems touches the reader’s very soul. Inspired by the loss of a loved one, Maudy de Vreij put pen to paper and started writing down the words she couldn’t speak. As she explains, to her, poems are like lyrics without the music and she felt the urge to write down the songs she couldn’t find. These poems will bring the reader a laugh, a tear, and every other feeling associated with grief.

The first book of a self proclaimed modern quote-ologist and thinker.

Within this book L.C. Woods has captured raw, pure and unedited thoughts and feelings of life, love and loss.

"This book is nothing but a reflection of my feelings and emotions while life passes by. "

The three year span which is documented in "The Other Girl" are about a rollercoaster of a love life where a lot of thematics get covered. Falling in love, lust, cheating, hook-ups, regret. A structured story set through the chronology of the poems where the reader is bound to relate to a time where a single person would be the only thing that matters, whether that be positive or negative. Not settling down for a single form of poetry, Zeno explores creative ways to write and keep poetry fun ...

Since I’ve been very young I’ve been writing poems.

I want to help people with putting their emotions into words and motivate them to write.
