Mother Book

Before she was "Mom,"
she was someone.

Mother Book is a personal story project. Through a one-on-one interview, we listen to your memories and experiences and shape them into a short written story.

1. WHAT IT IS

There's a story worth keeping, even in a quiet, unnamed life.

Mother Book is a project where, through conversation, we shape a person's past and present thoughts into a short written story.

You don't need to speak smoothly or have polished words. We start from conversation, and slowly put feelings that haven't yet found words into language.

This is not psychotherapy, diagnosis, treatment, or medical counseling.

2. WHO IT'S FOR

Who it's for

—Someone who wants to be heard, slowly and fully.
—Someone who wants to capture a self beyond being 'Mom.'
—Someone who wants to gently sort through their past.
—Someone who wants to put small daily feelings into words.
—Someone who isn't comfortable posting on social media, but wants their story kept somewhere.

3. WHAT YOU RECEIVE

6. SAMPLES

Sample stories

The sample below is a fictional example to illustrate what a finished story might look like. It is not a real participant's story.

On a Nameless Morning (Fictional Sample)

サンプル

After my children grew up and left home, the house grew quiet. I'd spent so many years being called "Mom" that I rarely talked about myself. In our conversation, I remembered a small dream I'd once given up on in my twenties — something I'd never told anyone. Putting it into words, one piece at a time, slowly turned my days into a story of my own.

7. PRIVACY

Sharing and privacy

After the piece is written, you choose whether to make it public, keep it private, or publish it anonymously.

Recording and writing only happen within the scope you've agreed to, and we confirm the final content with you before anything is shared.
