CARRIE'S STORY is Released

In the wake of 50 Shades, there is a growing fascination with kinky fiction. Three of the top of authors of smart, edgy fiction are teaming up with New York's Pleasure Salon to hold a reading and Q&A in response to the curiosity about this trend. Molly Weatherfield, Laura Antoniou, and DL King will read from their steamy novels, and discuss the keys to writing intelligent and sultry stories. All three authors have been published with Cleis Press, which has specialized in BDSM literature for more than thirty years.

Readers, writers, and the people who love them are all welcome. There will be a giveaway of all of the authors' latest titles, so at least five people will be "getting lucky." Fans of hot writing are in for a delightful evening at Happy Ending.
