About

Writer, minister, and storyteller from the Southern Tier of Western New York.

Portrait of J W Kiefer

J W Kiefer writes modern fantasy with a mythic pulse—stories that collide faith, myth, and humanity in worlds that feel one heartbeat away from our own.

A minister, novelist, and father of four, J W draws inspiration from both scripture and storytelling. He holds degrees in Theology and Church Management as well as Liberal Arts, grounding his work in both imagination and conviction.

When he’s not writing or pastoring, he can be found belting out Disney tunes as a self-proclaimed “reserve Green Lantern,” much to his family’s amusement (or horror). He’s also active on YouTube and elsewhere online.

J W believes that stories are modern parables—reflections of light shining through cracked realities—and through his Justice Cycle series, he invites readers to look beyond what’s seen and question what lies in the shadows.
