Quinta Brunson Wants To Write For The Hallmark Channel’s Holiday Movies, But Does Not Celebrate Christmas

deadline.com:

Abbott Elementary creator Quinta Brunson revealed on Wednesday’s episode of The Drew Barrymore Show that her career goal is to ghostwrite one of Hallmark’s many Christmas movies. “My TV doesn’t leave that channel during Christmastime — neither me or my husband celebrate Christmas, (She grew up as a Jehovah’s Witness, whose tenets don’t recognize the holiday) but I love them so much and I really want to ghostwrite one,” Brunson told Barrymore. “I think I’d be good at it.

I hope they let me.” If it happens, Brunson said she would do it under a pseudonym. “It’s gonna be under a fake pen name. It won’t be me so you guys don’t know, because I don’t want you to be biased!” Brunson said. “I want you to just enjoy the movie — or not enjoy it — the same way you do the other ones.” The Hallmark Channel aired 42 different holiday films in the last year alone.
