In answer to your question, yes. "Less Dead" does refer to that theory. I first heard the saying at a workshop with Steven Eggers, author of "The Killers Among Us."
Laura, thanks for adding me to your to-read list! I don't remember if I asked this, but is "Less Dead" referring to the theory that serial killer victims are usually the 'expendable' member of society, such as runaways and prostitutes? I taught a class on serial killers and this was one of the theories that caught my attention. Again, thank you.
Mary Anita And The Second Liberation In Kenya Consider reading this book for dramatic entertainment full of African passion and flavour, culture, social life and politics.
Thank you, Jesse. My friends on Goodreads are very special to me. Having a writing weekend. It's great. Hope yours is a great one. Laura

HI Laura and thanks for the add. Hmmm, Less Dead is such an intriguing titile. I love it! If you have time, I'd love for you to visit my web site, www.jeanniebarber.com. I'm a novice writer so feel free to make any kind of suggestions, ideas or thoughts to correct it. I’m co-authoring a novel with Patty Wiseman, another friend on Goodreads. We’ve known each other for over 30 years. While you're there, please sign the guestbook, too! There’s also a link to our book you can click on…clairkelley@synthasite.com. This site is brand new and in the editing stage as is our story. Please visit it as well. We’re both very green, but we’ve met so many people on this site willing to reach out and offer advice or a guiding hand. Thanks,
Jeannie
Hi, Laura. So good to hear from you. I'm wishing you the best for your book launch!
