Now's your chance to snag a free copy of my erotic ebook, Coercion!

Answer the trivia question below by commenting at luxzakari.com/2010/08/30/contest-free-copy-of-coercion or via an e-mail to luxzakari@gmail.com sometime between August 30 and September 6. Only one response is necessary.

On September 6, I will throw all the names/e-mail addresses/etc. of the people who have answered the question correctly into a vessel of some sort and have an unbiased party select a winner at random. That winner will be announced on September 7.

And now! The question:

In Coercion, Valerie has Michael take her to a movie that loosely resembles his own predicament in regards to women. The movie's title isn't disclosed in the book-it's up to you to reveal that now! The tag line to this 1975 movie is "Your hairdresser does it better." What's the film?

Hi everyone! My name is Lux Zakari, and this week, I'm in Melodee Aaron's Author Spotlight -- very fun!

This opportunity couldn't come at a better time -- August 2 also marks the release of my first erotic novel, Coercion! Needless to say, I'm pretty excited.

You can learn more about me and my writing via the author interview, and an e-mail-based chat will take place on Wednesday, August 4, so please feel free to drop by and ask me questions!

Additionally, you can also send me an e-mail or say hi to me via Facebook, Twitter or MySpace.

Looking forward to getting to know you all this week! :)

Paper Bag Press has published its first audio book. Hooray! It is my hope to have the entire collection in audio form before the end of 2010. Feel free to pester me to check on that progress. 

I'm very excited about this--folks who commute to work on the train, bus, or in their cars can now enjoy that commute even more. Or, you might choose to listen to an erotic story while spending some quality time with your lover. 

Do you listen to audio books?

...be sure to stop by the "Chemistry Lab" (you'll find directions on the official map of the camp)Saturday at 3 p.m., where I will be facilitating an erotica writing workshop. I've turned a baker's dozen of boring notebooks from Staples into worthy souvenirs. Think steamy quotes whose mission are to inspire. Think artfully scattered silver stars. Think I've revealed all? Think again!

I will also be running an Erotica Open Mic on Sunday night at 9 p.m. for those PEXers who wish to share 5 minutes of erotic poetry, prose, music, etc. Teacher's-pet types who show up at my writing workshop will get a chance to sign up early.

Hope to see you there!
