Members Dr. Jay S.W. Posted November 11, 2007 Members Share Posted November 11, 2007 I'm not sure what your getting at. All I know is that that Veronica Sandbridge moniker is close to her character of Veronica Dandridge. It makes perfect sense for it to be her. Im going with it. It's her. If I'm wrong, I have no problem apologizing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted November 11, 2007 Members Share Posted November 11, 2007 It is her. And since Veronica and Changed know each other (), I don't think you can't expect from Changed at this moment in time to write what are Carlivati's plans.

Members Dr. Jay S.W. Posted November 11, 2007 Members Share Posted November 11, 2007 Hell, I just wanna know what other writers are coming/going!! Let me know changed. Toups has Vola Soof listed on his list of OLTL writing occurances. Is she permanent? Changed??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChangedBYSon Posted November 11, 2007 Members Share Posted November 11, 2007 Where is this list by Toups at? I honestly don't know anything. This newspaper article in Denmark says that Voof is now in Denmark where her book just went #1 http://www.berlingske.dk/article/20071102/kultur/111021276/ I have friends at OLTL but they said the show has no interest in Vola an Ron never considered bringing her on.

Members Dr. Jay S.W. Posted November 11, 2007 Members Share Posted November 11, 2007 Toups has Veronica Sandbridge listed in his Directors and Writers thread. I say shes Vola, which I why I said he has "her" listed. His listing is not Vola, its Veronica. Tell your friends at OLTL to email me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RuAsRuAnAu Posted November 11, 2007 Members Share Posted November 11, 2007 More from Veronica Sandbridge: "Megan McTavish...is best known for several head writing stints on All My Children. Her alias is Veronica Sandbridge and writes scripts for One Life To Live." "Veronica Sandbridge (being reported by Soap Opera Digest to be an alias of a well-known writer)." One Life To Live Head Writer (February 1999- January 2001) Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megan_McTavish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dr. Jay S.W. Posted November 11, 2007 Members Share Posted November 11, 2007 I'll tell you what. I dont believe that that is Mctavish, but if it is, then I'll take it. I liked her eppy. That's why I think it was [!@#$%^&*]. But we never know, maybe Megan is a better SW than HW. I'd give her a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members RuAsRuAnAu Posted November 11, 2007 Members Share Posted November 11, 2007 More thoughts on Boof's tenure as a ghostwriter on Y&R: "...And as for [!@#$%^&*] Borf writing for Y&R I hope not. I saw her on Larry King Live and she was embarrasing. She was so bad answering questions that I could barely keep from changing the channel. It's bad enough LML is ruining Y&R; I'd rather not have another bozo mucking up the show..." Posted by dbklmt @ TWOP/Y&R "Respectfully, it's not like she's gonna be acting on the show. Who cares how she answers questions on live television? Her writing is quite good. As one of the interim writers in between JERk's reign of terror and Hogan Scheffer's installation as new head writer on Days, [K*la Boof] (not Borf) scripted sharp dialogue, compelling interaction, and, as novel a concept as it is, really understood the female characters on the show in a way that was markedly different from what viewers were used to having suffered through JERk's relentlessly misogynistic portrayal of women. I think it's a shame that people judge her on her past or the way she acts and not on her actual talent.." Posted by BenjyDiMera @ TWOP/Y&R "I know someone with lots of Y&R gossip and from what she told me, this was always Daniel's story. The way it was originally pitched (not by Latham) was around the time of the Alex reveal when Dily had fallen out. It would've been more of an umbrella story involving the entire Winters family and Lily with some balls. I believe everyone already knows there was a ghost writer on Y&R last year who wrote most of the Winters stuff. It was her story and it was fabulous."

Members Chris B Posted November 11, 2007 Members Share Posted November 11, 2007 Like I said, I'm sure soaps are chomping at the bit to get McTavish, lol. It's insane, but if Higley could get a new job, why not McT? It never sounded like Frons wanted to let her go with his comments that she just needed a break. I'd say it's more likely to be her that Boof. ChangedBYSon, Do you know of any other writers who've done bibles for soaps, but been turned down? Any idea what Kay Alden had in mind for AMC?

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted November 11, 2007 Members Share Posted November 11, 2007 If Vola wants so desperately to head write for soaps, then why did "ghost white" and go uncredited on soaps she allegedly wrote for? That doesn't make any sense, especially if she was trying to shop a bible around within in industry. I hardly doubt any writer would write that significant amount of storyline projection and execution and not take any credit for it. Some of you need to give up on these undocumented conspiracy theories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Chris B Posted November 11, 2007 Members Share Posted November 11, 2007 Y&RWorldTurner, she was credited for one script at DAYS and it was a great script btw. Obviously it wasn't the only thing she worked on. Boof even said in audio interviews with WoST that she was ghost writing on another soap, but didn't reveal it was Y&R. The reason it was on the hush is because of all the exploitative press they'd get because of her Osama bin Laden connection. This is untimately why she was fired from DAYS, not because of talent, too much press. My source told me months ago that three slots would be opening at OLTL in November and that Ron was interested in her. Same source also said that she would be credited for her work. I posted this in the Writers and Directors thread BEFORE Veronica Sandridge was credited, so it's not something I'm retconning. It was out there, but nobody was willing to entertain any Bola Boof talk. VR apparently tried to get her credited at Y&R, but was unsuccessful.

Members ChangedBYSon Posted November 12, 2007 Members Share Posted November 12, 2007 I thought she was GREAT on Larry King Live. He really liked her a lot! This person is totally lying. Boof gives really fantastic interviews, here she is on MSNBC http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHtrRamIe7M She's very intelligent. People use her "past" as an excuse for her color TBH. They just don't want someone who seems so alien and different writing their shows and they fear she will become another Shonda an blow up. I know those episodes of "Days" she wrote were off the chain! Everybody was talking about how good her shows were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
