Tell Lita Ford Your Wicked Wonderland Fantasy and Win a Warlock Guitar in Stockroom.com Contest

(EMAILWIRE.COM, November 10, 2009 ) LOS ANGELES -- (Nov. 9, 2009) – Storytellers and poets with a love for kink and a talent for creative writing can win a kickass B.C. Rich Warlock Guitar autographed by hot rocker Lita Ford in a contest sponsored by Stockroom.com.

This marks the second time this fall that The Stockroom – the world's leading manufacturer and retailer of fetish gear – has teamed up with Lita, the heavy metal queen and self-proclaimed erotic adventurer. In September they made music marketing history when the song "Bed" from Wicked Wonderland, Lita’s first album in 15 years, was released exclusively on Stockroom.com. The album, which debuted in early October, is now a top-seller across the USA and is available at Amazon.com.

Lita equally showcases impressive guitar chops and lyrical skill on the Wonderland album, which is largely autobiographical. The sexy lyrics – which make frequent references to Lita’s kinky personal life with husband Jim Gillette, who accompanies her on the album - paints an insightful and intimate portrait of their unconventional yet relentlessly passionate marriage.

Lita herself will choose the winner of The Stockroom's "Wicked Wonderland Fantasy Fiction Contest," a creative writing competition that invites Lita fans age 18 and over to share their fantasies about what their own "wicked wonderland" would be like. To qualify, an entry must reference at least one product from the 4000+ items available from The Stockroom at www.stockroom.com. The product must be referenced by the item's actual title as listed on the website. Only one entry is permitted per person, per household. However, all forms of writing are welcomed – including essays, poetry, and short fiction – so long as they are the contestant's original, previously unpublished work, are written in English, and are no longer than 500 words. Contestants should review the full contest rules prior to submitting their work to make sure their entry meets all requirements and guidelines at The Stockroom's official Wicked Wonderland Fantasy Fiction Contest page at: www.stockroom.com/contest/.

The Stockroom will begin taking submissions for the Wicked Wonderland Fantasy Fiction Contest on Monday, November 9, 2009. All entries must be received on or before Wednesday, December 9, 2009.

The names of winners will be posted on Monday, December 14 on www.stockroom.com/contest/ (pen names can be used if preferred.) The first prize winner will receive an autographed Lita Ford Signature Warlock Guitar from B.C. Rich. A metal classic known for its distinctively aggressive silhouette, the Warlock features dual humbucker pickups; a 24-fret maple wood neck with rosewood fingerboard; and chrome hardware; valued at over $350 USD.

The second prize winner will receive a Bondage 101 Kit, a high-quality, comprehensive collection of The Stockroom's signature handmade leather gear – perfect for those wanting to dip a toe into the world of BDSM, or for the discerning kinkster. Ten third prize winners will receive a Jawbreaker Gag – the Stockroom's best-selling ball gag made from real candy. All winners will also receive a copy of the Wicked Wonderland album.

"We all have a kinky, wicked side and this contest gives everyone a chance to show just how crazy we are or wish we were," says Lita. "I believe that people who are into kink have more active fantasy lives and are more creative, so the entries should be fascinating to read," she adds.

When the single "Bed" was unveiled on Stockroom.com on September 28th, it was believed to be the first time an important music release made its debut via a website catering to the alternative fetish lifestyle. The CD was released on the JLRG Entertainment label, which is owned and operated by Lita and husband Gillette, the former Nitro lead singer famed for his glass-shattering scream. The couple will tour through November with Queensryche. To see tour dates visit www.myspace.com/litaford.

Fans of Lita and Stockroom can view and order fetish products from "Lita's Collection," a special selection of some of the fetish gear that she and Gillette have enjoyed in their personal lives (http://www.stockroom.com/litaford/), along with her favorite rubber dresses from The Stockroom's fetish couture line, Syren Latex (www.syren.com).

Lita started playing guitar when she was 11 years old and joined the all girl rock band "The Runaways" as lead guitarist when she was 17 in 1975. The band split in 1979 and some of Lita's solo hits have included "Kiss Me Deadly," "Close My Eyes Forever," "Gotta Let Go," "Back to the Cave" and "Shot of Poison," which was nominated for a Grammy in the best Female Vocal category, as was "Kiss Me Deadly."
