Marcy A. Franklin

I'm a hippy, do-gooder Colorado girl with the obsessive-compulsive, perfectionist work ethic of an East Coaster. It makes living in New York City that much more fun.

I'm unreasonably excited when I find grammar mistakes in newspapers.

My weakness used to be a soy latte. Now it's a good Scotch or whiskey.

I believe the best stories are the ones you stumble upon, not the ones you aim to find.

My goal is to be the next Anna Quindlen.
