Welcome

And thank you for stopping by my web site. I’m Franny Syufy,  a freelance writer, and for the past 10 years have written and managed the About.com Cats Web site. When I was eight years old and read "God's Little Acre" cover to cover, I knew I wanted to be a writer "when I grew up."

I  finally approached that goal in a small way by writing articles on real estate, senior advocacy, and other topics for local news media. Later, when I discovered the Internet, I published several short stories on a now-defunct personal site.

Witness the birth of a new modern-day legend as author Franny Syufy brings you Lucy the Loch Ness Llama, a charming picture book with fantastic illustrations by artist Martine Carlsen.
