Doreen Petersen asked Jonathan Janz:

I've recommend The Darkest Lullaby to my sister. Are there other authors in your genre and Stephen King's you would recommend?

Jonathan Janz Hey, thank you so much for recommending my book to her! I think if you two try my newer stuff (CHILDREN OF THE DARK, EXORCIST ROAD, THE NIGHTMARE GIRL, etc.), you'll enjoy it even more.

As for other genre writers beyond King and me, I'd strongly recommend Brian Keene (DARK HOLLOW), Jack Ketchum (RED), Richard Matheson (HELL HOUSE), and John Farris (WHEN MICHAEL CALLS). There are tons of others I love, but those four might be great places to go next.

Thanks again for recommending my work, Doreen! :-)

Monica Go asked Jonathan Janz:

Hello there, a question popped up in my head and I had to ask: have you written any essays about the horror genre or really any arguments, meant for the public or that you are willing to share? Or have you thought about doing something like that? I understand you probably wrote a thousand essays in your life, but maybe not public - oriented?! If you know what I mean ☺ Thanks.

Dallas Kitchens asked Jonathan Janz:

Just wanted to say since I've discovered your books I've been missing out, your stuff is amazing, I really loved the siren and the Spector, and I'm reading children of the dark. And since I've been doing my podcast, I've discovered more great horror like yours and Jason parents and Hunter Shea. Thanks for kicking ass can I read some of yours for my podcast?

Austin Montgomery asked Jonathan Janz:

Hi. I, too, enjoyed the first Children of the Dark book. I had pre-ordered the Kindle version if The Night Flyers; the release date has changed a few times, but now I have a notice from Amazon that it was canceled. Do you still intend to have it released via Kindle as well as the hard copy?
