CHAPTER
2:
LETTERS
>
We got a lot of
mail, actual hand-written letters that were
alternately fascinating, touching, heartbreaking, disturbing.
This chapter =
reader letters, illustrated. Art by Emanuele
Simonelli.
Readers
would typically write to the fake porn star "publisher" of the
magazine, or to one of the girls they'd seen in it.
I
break mail down into seven categories, including
positive/upbeat (often often pretty sweet letters), poetic,
letters from prison, letters from guys who want to get into porn (who
are sometimes also in prison), odd, deeply bizarre, and desperate.
To
our right = a positive/upbeat letter from the
beginning of the chapter. These kinds of letters were often pretty
sweet. |
