John McNichol was born in Toronto, Canada at the dawn of the swinging 70s...which likely explains why he is such a fan of the Big 80s. He lived the first eighteen years of his life in Toronto, leaving to attend college at Franciscan University of Steubenville in Ohio. College agreed with him in more ways than one. He received an excellent level of academic and spiritual formation at FUS, and credits it to this day with his ability to focus a life of faith onto creative pursuits. Most important, it was at FUS that John he met his American wife. He's remained in the United States since his graduation and wedding in 1992. John now lives in Irving, Texas, with his wife Jeanna and their children. John is a High School English teacher by trade, and continues to pursue excellence in his vocation while writing hard-boiled detective stories and steampunk-themed science fiction about his favorite authors and literary characters. He became a proud American citizen on September 19th, 2012. John's first book, "The Tripods Attack," was published by Hillside Press in March 2008. Part of a trilogy titled "The Young Chesterton Chronicles," the second volume, "The Emperor of North America," is also available from Hillside. His novel for the 9-12 year old Market, "The King's Gambit", was published by Hillside in October of 2013. He is currently at work on the final volume of the YCC, "Where the Red Sands Fly." His short story, "Two Kinds of People," was included in the October 2016 anthology "Image and Likeness," a collection of stories with themes relating to St. John Paul II's Theology of the Body. His story "How Zeke Got Religion at 40,000 Feet" was included in the 2019 edition of SNAFU, an anthology of military fantasy/horror fiction. John loves loaded pizzas, meaty lasagnas, killing 3-5 hours at a stretch at his local Barnes & Noble on the weekend and seeing fan art based on his works. He hates broccoli. Hates it. Still.
