The stories developed a following on the Internet and she self-published The Sex Chronicles before landing a deal with Simon & Schuster.
Her work was the basis for the Cinemax program Zane's Sex Chronicles. Her latest project, Zane's The Jump Off, premiered March 29, 2013, on Cinemax.
Zane is the publisher of Strebor Books/Atria Books/Simon and Schuster where she publishes 36–60 books a year by other authors.
The first feature film based on one of her works, Addicted, will be released by Lionsgate on September 5, 2014.
