About the Author

Fredrik T. Olsson

Born in 1969 outside Goteborg on the Swedish west coast, Fredrik T Olsson rapidly grew up to fail at becoming an actor, a world-renowned movie director, and the emperor of a warm, medium-sized country (not that he really tried, but still) .
Instead he took to writing, which turned out to be a much better idea. A full-time screenwriter for film and television since 1995, Fredrik has written scripts in genres ranging from comedy to thriller, as well as developing, showrunning and head-writing original material for different Swedish networks.
Besides talking a lot and drinking more coffee than he should, Fredrik T Olsson is also a standup comedian and makes occasional contributions as a director. However, his efforts to become an emperor still seem to remain a failure.
