Pickut began his writing career after retiring from the healthcare field, and previously served as newspaper editor for the Jamestown Gazette. He has published five books as a freelancer, co-author or ghostwriter: The First Counterspy, The Best Years of My Life, a Patient’s Guide to LASIK Eye Surgery, A Patient’s Guide to Varicose Vein Surgery, and Think Like A Winner.
