The writers credit has changed recently for Elizabeth Korte. For a while, Korte has been listed in the third batch of GH writers along with the day's script writer. I've been told this meant that she was in charge of continuity.

With the Dec. 29, 2015, episode, she joined the other five writers in the second batch: Anna Theresa Cascio, Janet Iacobuzio, Katherine Schock, Chris Van Etten and Christopher Whitesell. These are the breakdown writers.

It's always tough to figure out when an individual writer is doing good work on a soap, but on days when Korte is the script writer I have felt like the dialogue is pretty strong. Korte was the script writer on the Dec. 28 episode when Spinelli ran into Jason in the park, Sabrina pleaded with Michael to forgive her and Tracy kicked Paul out. That was the best episode for dialogue I have seen in a while, particularly in the Spinelli/Jason and Michael/Sabrina scenes.

Korte is the script editor, that's why she's listed everyday, and now she's also helping out writing more breakdowns and scripts.   GH only has three SWs right now: Sickles, Archer Compton, and Flynn.   A 4th SW is probably on the way because I can't see them sticking with only three regular SWs.
