About
Worlds built
at the edge
of now
Janine Shiota is a novelist and screenwriter working at the intersection of speculative fiction, cinematic narrative, and human endeavor. Her work explores power, identity, and the systems — technological, political, personal — that shape who we become.
Her debut novel serial, the Genesis Series, charts a near-future world unraveling and rebuilding itself. Her screenplays range from high-stakes political drama to intimate domestic comedy, drawn together by her instinct for character under pressure.
