b"What started off as a few naughty stories shared with her close friends somehow \\nbecame a billion dollar empire that firmly cemented Zane as the Queen of \\nErotica. With a slew of raunchy novels and short story collections, complete \\nwith saucy titles like The Heat Seekers, Chocolate Flava and Dear Mr. G-Spot, \\nthis self-publishing sensation-turned-New York Times Best Selling \\nauthor/publisher has proven she isn't bashful about giving her rabid fans the \\ntype of unapologetic, sexually-empowering, female-focused fiction they've been \\nstarved for in a sea of formulaic chick lit. Zane's books aren't about women \\nfinding Mr. Big, her heroines are more concerned with achieving the Big O, two \\nor three in one night if they're lucky, and on their own terms.

This year \\nmarks Zane's foray into the world of television. Luke and Jamey caught up with \\nthe mulitasking mogul who has been busy penning scripts for her new Cinemax \\nprime time soap Zane's Sex Chronicles, based on two of her best-selling books \\n(Sex Chronicles: Shattering the Myth and Getting' Buck Wild: The Sex Chronicles \\n2) airing every Friday at midnight. Zane shares with them how the cable network \\ncontacted her when they decided they wanted to bring urban erotica to \\ntelevision. She also shares exclusive news about her upcoming \\ntelenovela-inspired five-day-a-week soap opera for BET based on her novel \\nAfterburn, as well as plans already in the works to turn yet another of her \\nsteamy reads, Addicted, into a major motion picture. It's an interview you won't \\nwanna miss.
