Known around the world as the 'king of horror', author Stephen King doesn't need to try too hard to sell his books.
But after writing his latest tale Morality, King decided to give the story maximum publicity, by 'publishing' it on the naked body of...supermodel Bar Refaeli.
...features nude on the July cover of the U.S. edition of men's magazine Esquire, with the opening paragraphs of King's short story written across her famous curves.
The write stuff: Bar Rafaeli shows off her figure - and the
opening paragraphs of Stephen King's new novel - on the front cover of Esquire magazine
The 23-year-old beauty had several sentences from the story, along with the title 'Morality' and Stephen King's name written in scrawly black ink across her tanned physique.
Morality is billed as a story about a married couple who are struggling financially.
The wife Nora 'is approached by her employer with a proposition that could make their dream of a home in Vermont a reality. But will it be worth the moral consequence?'
Bar posed naked to launch the magazine's special... ...'I haven't seen anything like that ever. So I wanted to be the girl who did it.' The model lay still while graphic designer James Victor painted first 48 of the story's 6,657 words on her naked flesh....

I’d write more if only I had a similar canvas.
well I think King is a moronic liberal @$$hole, but for some reason I struggled to read every word on the page provided. Interesting. big thumbs up.
I have the word Mississippi tatooed on my uhmmm....package.
An interesting read, Bar none!
However, his tome The Stand may be the Great American Novel, IMHO. I first read it as a kid and it warped me forever: It helped form my views on authority, morality, and of course, my post-apocalyptic game plam for battling Satan when he mainfests himself in physical form.
Funny, I do to.
When I get excited, you can even read what it is an acronym for.
Sounds more like a nightmare. Unless they were looking for extra good welfare bennies.
Also, am I the only one who thinks this Refaeli chick is merely a 7.5? I think Leo DiCaprio may actually be prettier than her!
Now why wasn't this job mentioned when I went to high school? Let's see, plumber, electrician, lawyer, doctor, guy who paints on nude supermodels....
Are his book sales so low he has to use this technique now?
I like King’s novels. Have read all of them.
It’d be more horrifying if he’d debuted on HELLen Thomas’ body...
I’m waiting for them to be re-issued in the supermodel-book of the month club...
Ah, he's probably gay anyway That's why he could write all that stuff on her without his hand trembling.
I only clicked on the link to read the article, I mean book, I mean ...
Didn’t the Ditsy twits do the same thing. I like how they say their words and deep deep thoughts are being repressed yet, they get to pose practically nude with their ‘musings’ for all to see.
No one stopped Sheryl Crowe from spouting off on her brilliant planet saving one square to spare for the hoi polloi to be forced to adopt while she gets to use the finest linens for her #1 & #2 duties.
Hypocrites all. I have a feeling things are coming to a head pretty fast.
I’m heading down to the Bar, honey! See you later!
Don't be silly! King will debut his next book on Hellen Thomas' body. Coincidentally it is titled "The Wraith of Craggy Bottom"...
:^)
With all her sagging he could write in the entire Dark Tower series.
