Development
Candy Girl began after Mason Novick, who would soon become Cody's manager, showed interest in Cody's acerbic wit after reading about her adventures in her blog titled Pussy Ranch. Based on the popularity the blog had received, he was able to secure her a publishing contract with Gotham Books.
