About Me

Betty Robertson is an award winning writer, narrative designer, and editor. A jack-of-all-trades in storytelling, she’s a member of BAFTA, and a respected voice in the interactive romance community. Her GDC talk “Respecting Player Fantasies in Dating Sims” breaks down a career of exploring audience expectations and the best way to give folks something new with the old. Currently, she works for Netflix as a consultant and editor on their interactive content. Betty's written for franchises such as Aliens, Too Hot to Handle, and Assassin's Creed. Her screenplays: Last Meal, and The Washer Lady made it to the Semi-Finals and Quarter-Finals of NYISA. She’s a horror nerd first and foremost, but she also loves to write ‘kissing books’ that end with a hard earned HEA. Her sports comedy, Jockstraps, is premiering on WebToon in April of 2025. When she's not working on one of her many, many, many writing projects, she's playing soccer or walking her dog, Banana, around the “mean streets” or Toronto.
