**Scott Cole** is an American writer, artist, and graphic designer operating out of [Philadelphia](/source/Philadelphia).

## Career

Cole expressed an interest in horror from a young age and has cited 80s [slasher films](/source/Slasher_film) as well as works such as *[Night of the Living Dead](/source/Night_of_the_Living_Dead)*, *[Dawn of the Dead](/source/Dawn_of_the_Dead_(1978_film))*, and [John Skipp](/source/John_Skipp) and [Craig Spector](/source/Craig_Spector)'s *[Book of the Dead](/source/Book_of_the_Dead_(anthology))* as influences. He also stated that his writing speed differs on what he is writing, as he can complete his first drafts quickly while short stories can take years to complete.[1] He typically creates an outline or framework for his novellas while he does not typically use this for his short stories; the exception for his novellas was *Crazytimes*, where he based the story on a rough idea he had after waking one morning.[2]

Cole also works as an artist and graphic designer and has created the covers and promotional materials for his works.[3]
