Gal Pals Watch Love, Classified & Interview with writer, Lynn Sternberger!
Episode 94: Love, Classified and interview with writer, Lynn Sternberger!
Hello lovelies! This month Alicia and Sarah had the supreme honor of talking to Lynn Sternberger, a very fun and cool Hollywood Writer who wrote today's film! Love, Classified is a lezzy Hallmark movie that is definitely the best thing Hallmark has ever made (biased opinion). We talk to Lynn about the process of writing the movie, what inspired it, her work in TV writer's rooms, her fated relationship with Melora Harden, *some* Hallmark devotees being so terrible it's funny, and more. It's a great time! Enjoy!
