Their debut full length poetry collection, Mask for Mask, was released from New Rivers Press in 2021 [8] and was described by Publishers Weekly as a "startling", "memorable and energetic debut."[9] Their writing has been anthologized in BAX 2015: Best American Experimental Writing[10] and Best New Poets 2017.[11] Scott's writing has been described as full of "something ominous, wolf-like lurking"[12] and "unsurpassable in its #sorrynotsorry earnestness".[13]
