Corrine began writing at an early age. In elementary school she created fairy tale stories that her school library made available to the other children. In high school, following the untimely death of her parents, she immersed herself in writing deep poetry and novellas. Some of her pieces were later published in her college newspaper.
She spent many years in management for Fortune 500 companies, a career she left in 2009 to pursue her dreams of becoming a novelist. It was then that her first book, On the Big White Oak, emerged.
Corrine currently resides on Long Island, where she is working on her next book.
Sneak a peek at Corrine's interview:
T. Please tell us about your current book.
C. On the Big White Oak is a story about three people and the changes that occur in their lives after two of them make an impulsive decision.
It’s an exploration about the depth of love and how it can die or be manipulated. It explores the power of mistakes that cannot be taken back and the way that guilt can press down on a soul so firmly, even breathing becomes tainted. It explores choice.
I find it to be a bit of a complex love triangle and it is told from all three characters’ perspectives.
