About the Author

Jan Notzon is a novelist and playwright who has made Charlotte, NC his home since 1994.

His first novel,The Dogs Barking, is a coming-of-age story set in a sleepy backwater Texas border town in the 1950s, through the dislocation of university life in the '60s and on to the raw, frenetic power of New York City. His second novel, And Ye Shall Be As Gods, recounts a brother's fight to rescue his beloved sister from the clutches of despair and his lost love from the prison of catatonia. His most recent novel, The Id Paradox, is the story of three friends, assumed betrayal, rescue and healing from the horrors of PTSD.

He has also written seven full-length plays, a one-act, The Forsaken, which was produced in two different venues in New York City and premiered in Columbia, SC. His play The Cosmological Constant was workshopped and presented as a staged reading at Actors' Theatre in Charlotte, NC by the Applebox Production Company. His play When Good Men Do Nothing was a finalist in the Dramarama Competition in San Francisco. He has also written one children's story, The Gift of ArbolCeiba.

Jan has also worked as an actor, appearing on Another World, Search for Tomorrow, Matlock, The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles and, most recently, in Beverly Lewis' The Confession on The Hallmark Channel, a work directed by Michael Landon Jr., starring Adrian Paul and Sherry Stringfield.

His present and 4th novel, Song For The Forsaken, is now in the final stages of production and will soon be available for purchase. It concerns the loss of faith and the power of the love of two sisters and a devoted friend.
