Apirl 13, 2010 - Sex sells? The "hot" side of Overcome!

I received a comment from a dear and trusted friend that Overcome! will be a winner because sex sales.  Well, that isn't my intention.  The sexual nature of a few of the passages are shown to display how naive I was in the world at the time.  I found fulfillment not in the act of the sex but in the act of standing before the Creator's face.

Of course, sex is good.  It is one of our gifts from the Creator in fulfilling intimacy between two people.  But, it's not the only way and I think we in the gay community forget that from time to time.  Intimacy comes from love, trust, communication and companionship.  And, that intimacy can be gloriously special - far above what a one night tryst can do.

I also received an offer of editing yesterday. I am blessed to have such a kind person out there.  As we begin editing, we'll begin to see what can and cannot be left out of the 180900 words that Overcome! currently is.

To any and all fans,
Blessings,
Reece Manley
