About Glen Olson

GLEN OLSON grew up in the San Fernando Valley, a suburb of Los Angeles. He would have had an absolutely normal childhood except for one fact: it was the nineteen sixties, and his best friend’s father worked in cold war aerospace . . . and the friend's father owned a mimeograph machine. So along with a dog, bicycle, and baseball mitt, Glen and friends had access to a device that allowed them to put out a neighborhood newspaper— and they shamelessly did so! 

This encouraged his lifelong love of writing. In his next career Glen became a paramedic for a fire department. As part of his medical background he took training as a lay mid-wife. In the fire dept he had several roles, including disaster preparedness educator, inspector, and captain, writing training manuals by day and fiction by night. 

Glen is a trained scuba diver and has toured the continent on a motorcycle. Today he is a fulltime writer and all of his experiences tend to wind up on the pages of his novels. He is the author of three books and working on a fourth (and fifth).
