Group Inventory

Perhaps now is the time for us not only to take an SA inventory, but for us to take our group inventories, based on the Twelve Traditions. How does my group rate when evaluated against the Twelve Traditions? Is our main purpose to carry the message of what we are to the sexaholic who still suffers?

Concerning Publicity

Recently one or more members granted interviews with the press, which were published in a local newspaper but then picked up by other papers in the chain and by the wire services. One member’s first name and home address were listed in the newspaper article, and that member has been inundated with inquiries.

Concerning the December 1983 Get-Together

Let’s look at the positive side: First, the get-together helped get the SA booklet into being; and it has so far proven to be much-needed and helpful to many. Somehow, getting it together and bound, even in the form that it is, puts SA into a position it didn’t have before.

SA Inventory

1. You. How are you doing? Are you sober? According to the SA concept of sexual sobriety? How long? Are you comfortable with it? If you’d care to, we’d love to have you write something about where you’re at or what’s been happening in you in the Program.

What’s in a Name?

This “letter” has turned out to be something of a newsletter. Which isn’t a bad idea, as some have suggested. “ESSAY” was just an off-the-cuff stab at a clever name.

What Is Lust?

I’ve been asked this question time and again and keep trying to get a better handle on it. I’ve enclosed another attempt to take a look at this most important subject: “What Is Lust?”

“Dear Abby”

Some of us are debating whether to let “Dear Abby” run the SA name and POB address as the opportunity arises within her column correspondence. She tells us that she gets a number of letters she’d like to refer to SA by merely giving to the readers in her column the SA name and POB address.
