A former television writer and venti iced latte expert, an overly caffeinated Candy works around the clock to keep readers apprised of life-changing news, such as Britney’s daily Taco Bell visits and sightings of actresses – gasp! – without makeup. So if readers should come across a dangling preposition or, heaven forbid, wonder why she hasn’t posted the most recent picture of Brad taking the kids to school, please do not send a nasty e-mail until Candy makes her next latte run. Also be sure to label the subject heading “Nasty E-mail,” so she knows not to open it.

Prior to launching Holy Candy, Candy was a professional job hopper in Corporate America, having worked at several top public relations agencies in New York City, as well as in brand management for the Fortune 50 Company, Boeing, in Seal Beach, Calif. She then took the next logical step in her marketing career to become a staff writer for the CBS daytime drama, “The Bold and the Beautiful,” where she penned many scripts featuring prolonged heated stares and countless “Who’s the Daddy?” story lines.

Candy has a Master of Science degree from Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism, just outside of Chicago. Born and raised in another major city, Mechanicsburg, Pa., Candy now resides in West Hollywood.

Yes, Candy is her real name. And, no, she has never been a stripper, prostitute or Scottish Terrier. Can’t believe everything you see in the movies, people. Except that all telephone numbers begin with the digits 555. That’s true.

Candy loves to hear from readers. Feel free to e-mail her at candy@holycandy.com or call the Holy Candy hotline at 555-4321. < less
