Recognition is the free part.
Becoming is the work.
You were right. It was about you. If you met me on Substack and recognized yourself, this is where the work happens — on the page, in a form that can hold it.

Myth & Movies
A free workbook for reading the stories you already love as instructions for the life you're rebuilding. Not what it means, but what it's telling you to do.
Enter your email and I'll send it. You'll also hear from me now and then — quietly, the way I write.
Two rooms.
The first room is where you stop being alone with the pattern. The practice is where you put it on the page in a form that can hold it.
A village for people who can't do surface-level bullshit anymore.
The Rebel MFA Sanctuary is a community on Skool for writers rebuilding after an inherited story collapsed. Not for seekers of tidy curricula or good-vibes-only spaces.
$29/month • $299/year

What I'm doing right now
The Archive
My living fictional universe and the story-driven roleplaying and journaling game that grows it. Happens in the Sanctuary.

I read horror and fairy tales as survival manuals.
I'm Jade Eby — Writer • Mythologist • Trauma Recovery Specialist.
I'm the author of more than twenty books across fiction and nonfiction, including Until They Burn, Forged in Fire, and the Writing Fiction to Heal book. I've spent over a decade helping people, especially trauma survivors, use writing as a tool for healing.
I hold a self-conferred Rebel MFA, my own deliberate alternative to the traditional writing degree, and I'm pursuing a self-designed Rebel Doctorate, studied in public through my essays.
You recognized yourself. Now what?
