About R. K. Olson

R. K. Olson is a multiple award-winning short story and novel writer in the pulp, western, horror and sword & sorcery genres. He started writing after a successful global technology career that had Bob working on every continent but Antarctica.

He has published a dozen short stories, many including his popular sword and sorcery character, Dar the Spearslayer. His first novel will be published early in 2025 by Two Gun Publishing. Titled “Siege at the Slash B”, it is a traditional western with plenty of bullets, bare knuckles and bushwhackings.

No longer a nationally ranked triathlete and competitive swimmer, he still musters up the gumption to race and sometimes surprises himself. Bob lives and writes within a bike ride of the Atlantic Ocean in the New England region of the United States. Check out Bob’s Facebook page: Facebook
