About Jill Golick
I write character-driven coming-of-age stories that are relatable for audiences of all ages. Coming of age is a process we go through over and over throughout our lives whenever things get hard. And relevant now because audiences want to believe they have the power to make themselves happy.
I’ve been fortunate to work as a screenwriter, story editor and creative producer on great series like Sesame Street and Annedroids but I’m best known for Ruby Skye PI, the interactive web series I created and showran for three seasons. I’ve always been an early adopter. I started a successful software company in the 80s, created Twitter’s first live comedy soap and I own a robot. My passion for interactivity and cutting edge technology infuse my original work.
