From the first-time author and 11th-grade student, Michelle, of Eastside High School in Paterson, NJ, comes a new Cypher-Noir® release!
Experience this gripping tale of trust, betrayal, and the haunting effects of untreated mental illness. HARMLESS© is a stark reminder of how an unchecked disorder can ripple outward, leaving broken lives in its wake. Riveting and heartbreaking, this psychological drama challenges readers to explore the thin line between compassion and devastation. HARMLESS© merges traditional story writing techniques with the use of today's technology such as AI and Adobe Photoshop!
Her Vision Became Reality
"Hello, Brian Sledge here, the Teacher of Graphic Design at Eastside High School. At the start of the 2nd marking period, my students were given an assignment: to create a minimum 12-page graphic novel on a topic of their choice. While many stories were interesting read, one truly stood out. Michelle, an 11th-grader, crafted a compelling narrative about a young girl struggling with mental health issues and the absence of support in her life. What followed was an unexpected and transformative journey!"
'Michelle and I began collaborating daily, discussing her story’s progression and refining how she envisioned its conclusion. From there, we worked meticulously designing the visuals, page by page, to bring her vision to life. After nearly 2-months, Michelle’s original 12-page concept evolved into a stunning 30+ page graphic novel!"
'The publishing of HARMLESS© is a testament not only to the techniques I teach but to the extraordinary creativity, vision, and determination these students possess. What started as a class assignment became a deeply personal and inspiring story. Her journey shows how a simple idea can transform into something extraordinary when passion and purpose come together!"
