In February 2018, Cole was one of several male authors anonymously accused of potential misconduct in the online comments to a School Library Journal article[4] that discussed the results of a survey on sexual harassment in children's publishing conducted by author Anne Ursu. Cole ultimately offered an apology on his own blog as well as a promise to contribute $500 to the Time's Up Legal Defense Fund.[5] In 2020, following new Twitter allegations, Cole was dropped by his agent and two of his publishers.[6][7]
