My Spanked book trailer

This isn't directly related to In The Flesh, but I'm too excited not to sharethis. And on August 21st I'll be reading alongside several contributors to Spanked: Red-Cheeked Erotica, and will have copies available for sale July 17th and August 21st.

Update - Vimeo took it down (as did Flickr) so here's the YouTube version:

I'm so proud of this book trailer, I can't even tell you. Thank you to everyone who helped, especially Heidi for lending me her apartment and What That Noise Productions for your stellar camera and editing work. Many of the paddles used are by Leather Thorn Paddles. If you have a blog, I'd love it if you'd repost it. Below is ~~the Vimeo version;~~ we've also got it up on YouTube, Blip, Flickr, and MySpace. Thanks to Tubemogul for ease of distribution.
