Jesse L. has made the suggestion that the writing and revision effort on the SA booklet should be frozen where it is, with the exception of going back to the original wording of the statement on sobriety and including the First Step Inventory. The First Step Inventory question is now in the process of waiting for the national group conscience to make itself heard, but this may be a good time to look at freezing the SA book.

“Deny the impulse to make it perfect, and go with the 90%,” he says. In other words, he feels there should be a cutoff point so I don’t keep feeding back into the book more mature experience that may weaken the book’s effectiveness for newcomers. He then made a strong case for my coming out with a sequel with a suggested title to the effect, Beyond Sexual Sobriety, following the theme set forth in my Sunday morning talk at Phoenix. ☆Feel free to comment on this.
