Several weeks after my first feature, “Going to Gacy: A Cross-Country Trip Shake the Devil’s Hand,” appeared on the cover of the LA Weekly, the paper printed a Letter to the Editor.
Hate to be a spelling geek, but there are three errors that you should fix--they detract from what is otherwise a fascinating rumination. 'their' instead of 'there', 'if production' > 'if the production' and 'write him name' > 'his'.
Question for NR: I know a lot has been written on Gacy, and 'Destination Gacy' is on my reading list. The only book I've read -- I shouldn't say "only" because it's written in exhaustive detail and I felt it told me everything I needed to know -- is 'Buried Dreams: Inside the mind of a serial killer' Tim Cahill, 1986. Kept me absolutely riveted and remains a true crime fav. I'm guessing you read it and wondered what you thought of it.
