Pam Long's had two very successful head writing stints on GL, for which she's won two Emmy's for. However, her writing stints on Santa Barbara and OLTL have been considered total flops, but word is, she hated network interference.

Networks have wanted Nancy Curlee for a long time, but when she left GL, she said she it was purely out of wanting to raise her children. Well, it's been almost 15 years and she has yet to come back. There's also speculation that she hated network interference as well. She is married to Stepehen Demorest btw...

Jill Farren Phelps was the executive producer of GL when Curlee/Demorest/Reilly/Broderick were wriiting the show. She was also the EP of both SB and GH when Guza and Pratt were writing both shows.

Make no mistake, Jill's first 2.5 years on GL were superb, in every sense of the word. It wasn't until Beverlee McKinsey walked and Jill had the character of Maureen Bauer killed off did things start to unravel. Needless to say, JFP should never again stick her head into the affairs of the writers...

Lorraine certainly was offered AMC before McTavish came back (oh what a difference that would've made) but she was sick and tired of being a HW. I certainly don't think Broderick was nasty to Frons, because she remained on OLTL for a whole year after she turned down AMC. Then she was fired.
