Five years later,
Rolling Stone packed up its West Coast office and moved east to New York City. That same year, the publishers decided to start a new magazine,
Outside. Because of Cahill's skill as an editor and his abiding interest in the outdoors, he was the logical choice to be
Outside's founding editor. He focused on organizing and publishing the new periodical, while also finding time to begin a column called "Out There." By 1977, however, Cahill had enough of the city. He turned over his management duties and became one of the magazine's most frequent contributors by keeping his column and serving as a contributing editor. From his new home in Livingston, Montana, he embarked on a career as freelance writer.
Cahill's first published book was Buried Dreams: Inside the Mind of a Serial Killer. An account of the life of John Wayne Gacy, the book was written with the help of investigative reporter Russ Ewing, who had been granted the opportunity to interview and correspond with the notorious mass murderer for several years after Gacy's arrest and imprisonment for the murder of thirty- three young men in Chicago.
