Unbelievable review of VEIL by Abby Wolf at Fandomentals: "Brutal, heartbreaking, and unforgettable, Veil confirms why Janz remains one of the most vital voices in contemporary horror." thefandomentals.com/veil/

Very much worth a read.

Had an amazing time last night with my pal James (J.H.) Markert at The Whispering Shelf bookstore in Indianapolis. Fantastic people and fantastic conversation. Can’t wait to do it again!

I love this.

Epic and amazing review of VEIL!

More shots from our Hawkins Halloween.

Joyce, Hopper, and Eleven send greetings from Hawkins.

Chapter Book Lounge in Noblesville (IN) on 11/16! You'll get an intimate reading, a signed copy of VEIL, an interactive Q&A, and more. It's going to be incredible...especially with some news that I'll hopefully be able to share by then. www.chapterbooklounge.com/product/behi...

Here's a name I need to hear a lot more: John Skipp. The guy writes fast-paced, nerve-jangling, incisive stories that never disappoint. Two starting points: THE LIGHT AT THE END (Skipp & Spector) and THE ART OF HORRIBLE PEOPLE (just Skipp).

The invisible creatures have arrived.

Got to school this morning and was greeted with this. A couple of my co-workers decked out my classroom for my birthday, and one even bought me a Stephen King book cover lamp. So cool.

Don’t think I’ve mentioned this elsewhere, but fans of my novella THE DISMEMBERED, which is an homage to Mary Shelley’s FRANKENSTEIN, will be happy to know I’m working on THE IMPALED, a vampire novel written in the epistolary style of Bram Stoker’s DRACULA.

Great advice from my friend Charles, and I happen to be fond of THE DISMEMBERED too.

So tomorrow is my birthday. The best way to celebrate is to buy my novel VEIL. If you've done that, grabbing one of my others would be cool. If neither suits you, help me find a Chief Hopper hat on short notice, as this Halloween my youngest and I are going trick-or-treating as Eleven and Hop.

If you're near, you'll wanna go, #booksky.

November 16th, Noblesville, IN, Chapter Book Lounge. Tickets are available now right here! www.chapterbooklounge.com/.../YKF4AXEB....

This club sounds like a blast. And look at those selections!

King is my main writing influence, but I’ve only lately realized how instrumental Richard Matheson was in my development. What a writer!

😂

Under two hours away!

Join ussssss tonight!

Regarding “Lenora.”

Each week, @kevharrison.bsky.social gathers the 5 must-read horror articles online into one post so you don't have to hunt them down, only @thisishorror.bsky.social.

Join us!

At the Heartland Fall Forum, authors were paired up for an activity in which we met tables full of bookstore owners. There were tons of authors there, and I only knew one. And by some cosmic coincidence, guess with whom I was paired? My friend, Mr. @mauricebroaddus.bsky.social! It was EPIC!

👀

This interview from The Beat is worth reading just for Ricardo Serrano Denis's introduction of VEIL, but if you stick around, you'll hear about my teaching, parenting, "Lenora," and my future projects (including the first time I've mentioned a title in print)! www.comicsbeat.com/horror-beat-...

Read an exclusive excerpt of my sci-fi horror VEIL at @fangoria.bsky.social! www.fangoria.com/veil-novel-e...

Just signed a foreign rights deal for CHILDREN OF THE DARK, which means it'll be available in four languages (English, German, Russian, and the latest, Spanish).

Join usssssss...

A mashup of sci-fi that you’ll recognize and some horror you may or may not recognize. Put all together to make a story of it’s own. Well worth checking out. @jonathanjanz.bsky.social

About VEIL…

I had the awesome opportunity to write for Dread Central about six sci-fi horror films that influenced my novel VEIL. I talk about BIRD BOX, A QUIET PLACE...but I don't want to give it all away. You can read the article right here! www.dreadcentral.com/editorials/5...

Albert’s happy place.

This seems like a good deal.

My daughter Jewel’s boyfriend made Albert a Batman mask. He looks like the Dark Knight!

New event alert! I will be at Noblesville’s Chapter Book Lounge on November 16th for a reading, Q&A, private signing, and public signing. More information in the pictures below. It’s going to be amazing!

Awesome words about VEIL from an excellent writer and film mind.

Killer new interview with Justin from Monsters, Madness and Magic about VEIL, “Lenora,” Stephen King, THE TWILIGHT ZONE, and so much more. This one was a blast! www.monstersmadnessandmagic.com/portalofthep...

One more shot from my signing/reading/Q&A at Books & Co. in Dayton, OH.

Had an absolute BLAST yesterday at Books & Co. in Dayton. Cool people, rocking store, and an awesome Q&A session with the crowd. I also read from “Lenora” for the first time!

I'll be signing books here in five hours. If you're a reader or even reading-curious, stop by and say hello at Books & Co. in Dayton, Ohio!
