Scott T. Nicol was born and raised in New Jersey.  Although he doesn't write for a living (he works in the construction industry), he has always loved writing.  "I would relish writing assignments in school.  Even in college, I took creative writing courses as electives."  The Dr. Jim series of books he is creating, starting with Dr. Jim & the Special Stethoscope, has been something he considered doing for years.  "I started fooling around with rhyming words and stanzas to tell this story.  Finally, I got serious about it and created a cute concept about a young country veterinarian and this magical instrument he uses to figure out his patients' ills.  It became a great little story.  And the subsequent stories are (and will be) as well.  These could be a feature animated film in the making!" Scott is married and has three beautiful children.  "This whole story writing is, kind of, for them.  I created these cute stories with them in mind."
