Gino Cox grew up in Wilmette, Illinois on Chicago’s north shore. He studied economics at Rockford College and marketing at Northwestern University’s J.L. Kellogg Graduate School of Management. He eventually moved to Malibu, California, where he worked for various entertainment companies, including a stint as general manager of Fleshwound Films, a company that produces extreme sports videos and live events, and is credited as production manager for Crusty Demons: 9 Lives. Gino has also appeared on stage in minor roles as an actor (three productions, eighty performances) and dancer (two productions, three performances). While The Black Pill is Gino’s first novel, based on his screenplay by the same title, it is not his first story, and benefits from his prior experience writing screenplays and writing/directing comedies. As reviewers have noted, it reads like a movie in that it is highly visual and tightly paced. Gino now lives, works and writes in Southeast Asia. One of his avocations is writing and producing language instruction videos in Thai and Tagalog which can be viewed on his YouTube channel.
