It’s Only Fiction…

by Tre Alee on Oct.05, 2009, under My thoughts

This past weekend was busy yet very eventful. I had a video photo shoot for the song Sweet Sexation, which is also the single for one of my current novels, Straight with Options.

 Initially when my publicist presented the idea to do the video I was a little nervous, but I don’t think I shared my reservations with him at that time. If you listen to the song, I’m basically singing about leaving my current relationship for another, if my spouse doesn’t get his act together. My nervousness didn’t come from having to depict the song in picture form, it was knowing the type of pictures I had to take in order to sell the song. Needless to say, I think the pictures we took and the video are going to really sell the song even more, thus controversy may fly once the video is seen.

 For those of you who haven’t read Straight with Options, the book deals with a loving relationship between a woman and a man, but then later a romantic relationship between two women is introduced. As I stated in one of my previous blogs, Straight with Options’ focus has little to do with a same sex relationship, it’s primarily about friendship, acceptance and love. However, Sweet Sexation is the representation of the novel so I had to represent the song through the pictures as well. For some who see the video, they will understand the entire concept of the song and the book, but to others it may be a little controversial.

 Please understand that I am an artist and I’m not promoting anything other than my books and music. By no means am I making any apologies for what I do, I just care enough about those who listen to and see my work to give a brief explanation. Some may say that I shouldn’t have to explain, but that’s just my way.

 Keep a look out over the next couple of weeks for the picture video of Sweet Sexation. Trust me I think you’ll like the song even more, I know I do.
