What is Jour House?
Jour House is the creative home of Myu — a place for stories, books, research, and experiments with words.
I explore how writing, language, and personal stories can help us notice our lives, understand others, and share what is inside us with the world.
Some projects begin as Japanese learning activities. Others begin with interviews, journals, research, or everyday moments.
They all begin with one thing: someone has a story to tell.
Books from Jour House
Stories you can hold in your hands.
Explore books created from writing, interviews, research, and personal stories.
Some are made for Japanese learners. Others grow from Jour House’s creative and research projects.

Write. Speak. Read. Listen. Create. Connect.
Jour House begins with curiosity.
We write our own words, listen to other people’s stories, create something from what we discover, and share it with others.

Exploring how words can change the way we learn, feel, and see ourselves.

OUR STORY
Why Jour House?
Jour House grew from a simple idea:
Everyone has something inside them worth expressing.
For years, I have worked with people’s words as a writer, interviewer, editor, and Japanese teacher.
Jour House is where those experiences come together — a place to create, listen, research, and share stories with the world.
About Me.
Writer · Japanese Teacher · Editor
I’m Myu, a writer, Japanese teacher, and editor from Japan.
My work explores language, writing, personal stories, journaling, and the ways people express who they are.
I create books, educational programs, interviews, and research projects through Myu Japanese Academy and Jour House.
Every story begins somewhere.
Maybe with a question.
Maybe with a conversation.
Maybe with three lines in a notebook.
