The Author

Hello, I’m Madison Jade

Long before I was an author, I was a reader. My childhood was spent hunting for magic in every way I could—hidden doors, portals to other realms, fairy circles, and anything else my mind could conjure. That early fascination naturally evolved into a life dedicated to exploration. For me, storytelling is about diving into the quiet, shadowy spaces of human nature, finding the unexpected beauty hiding inside the dark, and exploring morally grey conflicts where choices are rarely easy and every truth comes with a price.

My writing is deeply rooted in a love for these complex character dynamics. I want to write the kind of deeply layered stories that aren’t afraid to break your heart before they put it back together—tales filled with ancient fate, sharp-edged loyalties, and characters who have to fight for their own humanity.

When I’m not building rain-slicked cities or crafting celestial traps, you can usually find me in my own little corner of the world where I split my time between a massive TBR pile, a kitchen overflowing with baking supplies, and my three beloved cats: a mischievous kitten named Peanut, a quiet and elusive girl named Luna, and my absolute best friend and soul cat, Socks.

The story so far

How the worlds were made

  1. Once upon a time

    A reader first

    Grew up chasing magic in the form of books and stories—completely captivated by other worlds, villains, and the dangerous allure of a morally grey romance. It didn’t take long for the quiet spaces of reading to turn into an obsession with world-building, trading a flashlight under the covers for a desk covered in notebooks and character sheets.

  2. The spark

    Recognition and reality

    The solitary world of drafting turned upside down when the opening chapters of Providence broke through, placing in the top 1% of over 15,000 entries in a major novel-writing contest. It was the moment a quiet passion project became a tangible future.

  3. 2027

    The debut arrives

    The countdown begins. Providence makes its entrance into the world—a dark, atmospheric celestial fantasy about grace, hunger, and the terrifying trap of an ancient design. The story I always dreamed of writing.

  4. What's next

    Beyond the horizon

    The story is only just beginning. With new ideas hitting the desk and fresh magic waiting to be woven, the ink never truly dries. There are always more worlds waiting to be built in the shadows.

Thank you

Whether you’re here for the monsters, the lore, or just a quiet place to hide from the real world—I’m so glad you’re here for the journey.
