Coercion -- an erotic novel now available via Lyrical Press, Inc.

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! :)

Despite being on the receiving end of an annoying bout of laryngitis, the world, to zero surprise, continues on! Some new developments:

In an effort to promote the success of writers-as well as all-around good karma-I'm seeking authors with recently published or soon-to-be-published work(s) who'd like to partake in interviews, which will be posted on www.luxzakari.com.

This is a fun, laid-back and free opportunity to promote oneself and one's work, and it provides a chance to connect with potential readers and create camaraderie in this often competitive business.

For details or to request an interview, feel free to e-mail me at luxzakari@gmail.com. I look forward to hearing from you!

Good news to report on the ME Erotica Writing Contest front -- my story, "Semiprofessional," received the highest ratings for the month of November, thus I am now entered in the running to be a quarter-finalist! This definitely makes the year-long wait to learn the winner of Mainstream Erotica’s Erotic Stories Writer of the Year award much more bearable, certainly!

So, so, so much thanks to everyone who voted for "Semiprofessional" -- I'm so excited and so honored!

Until my next story, please check out my ebook, "Love on the Side of the NJ Turnpike," still available via Paper Bag Press!

-LZ.

NOTE: For those who haven't yet read "Semiprofessional" and would like to, please click any link mentioned in this post. You will be asked to log in, as you need to sign up for a free ME account. Afterward, revisit the "Semiprofessional" link.
