I'm ashamed to admit this, but I didn't know anything about Michele Val Jean before this other than she wrote the BTG bible and previously worked on GH. But after watching this, I loved hearing her story and really enjoyed getting to know her. First of all, her very first mentor was Jeri Taylor! I'm a huge Jeri fan from the Star Trek universe!

Yes, when Jeri Taylor died, both MVJ and Kate Mulgrew wrote tributes to her inspiring/shaping their careers.

That's amazing, I'd love to read her tribute.

OMG - yes!!! What a nice surprise. I was curious if they would land Susan at some point and what a great surprise to see this. I know she probably is going to talk about her new book she's gotta sell, but hey, this is great!

Did they go interview Susan? It doesn't look like the set they've been using to interview guests.

Just making sure @Khan doesn't miss this! It's also in the AMC thread.

I might have to get the book just to see Agnes' letters (though it sounds like a great read). I am glad to hear Agnes kept writing the show in her head, much as so many of us have done with our favorite soaps that have gone by.

I died at Budig rightly noting that Greenlee used to be a homophobic bully. "I called her Lesbianca! You couldn't get away with that now!" I haven't heard anyone from the show mention that in over 20 years.

For those keeping track of the family drama, Susan also offhandedly mentions having a multi-generational family dinner including her daughter following Helmut's death.
