R. Scott Bolton's interest in writing was sparked in the 5th grade when he wrote a series of short stories about Godzilla for creative writing assignments. His teacher, Ms. Molitz, encouraged him to continue writing, setting his career in motion. Bolton's writing career took off with his teacher's encouragement, and he has since written film reviews for the Ventura Today and Oxnard Press-Courier newspapers, music reviews for the Ventura County Reporter, and dozens of short stories, screenplays, and novels.
In addition to his written work, Bolton is also the founder/publisher/editor of Rough Edge, an online hard rock/heavy metal magazine. He has been involved in radio, appearing on KVTA radio as the co-host of the Burt Rosen Show and as Scott the Video Guy on The Tom Spence Show. Bolton also created the Backseat Mogul Show and appears on the Friday Shot Day Show and the Anime Something or Other Show, all of which currently air on RoughEdgeFM.com. Recently, he re-joined The Tom Spence KVTA morning show and appears each Thursday from 6am-6:30am.
Bolton currently resides in Ventura, California, with his wife Shelley, his son Joshua, and their dogs, Leo, Zoey, and Pretzel. He enjoys spending his free time watching movies, listening to music, or podcasting. More information about Bolton and his work can be found on his website, rscottbolton.com.
