Jan Wilson
Jan Wilson is a Los Angeles-based screenwriter. She was a semifinalist in the Nicholls Fellowship, the Austin Heart of Film, and the AAA Creative Screenwriting competitions, and was a Top Ten Finalist in the American Zoetrope screenwriting contest judged by Francis Ford Coppola.

Born and raised in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Jan knew she was destined to be a writer since the third grade when she wrote her first book, "Bert the Monkey". It was a great success with her teacher, she was hooked for life, and she's been a writer ever since. She was always a movie nut, but it wasn't until high school that she fully realized that the movies she loved so much had to be written by someone before they were filmed. It seemed only natural to turn her attention to screenwriting. After that, she was off and running.

After high school, she went to college in London before returning to America to get her Bachelor's Degree in psychology with a heavy concentration in parapsychology (ESP, ghosts, paranormal phenomena). Having a degree in psychology turned out to be an excellent tool for writing layered, emotionally complex characters.
