1 standalone · 1 work in the catalog
Janina Matthewson is a writer and co-creator, with Jeffrey Cranor, of Within the Wires, a science-fiction anthology podcast produced by Night Vale Presents that unfolds through relaxation tapes, museum audio guides, and other found-audio formats within a dystopian alternate history. Matthewson has written every episode of the series since its 2016 debut and narrated its first season. In 2021, she and Cranor extended the podcast's world into prose with the novel You Feel It Just Below the Ribs, developing the same universe's themes of institutional control and fractured memory in long-form fiction. Matthewson's work sits at the intersection of audio drama and literary fiction, built around a distinctive, document-based approach to speculative storytelling.
