Sylan Woods came from a broken childhood. Her step father was a serial killer,, her mother was dead and even worse, she even had a kidnapped blind 8 year old that had been trapped in her basement for 3 years! But, after several years of therapy she thought her life was finally getting back to normal, until some unexpected visitors arrive on her door step and took her away to a special school for very special people.
“Girl with Camera: A Ghost Story“ is the new graphic novel by author and artist Joy Rip. It is the haunting, disturbing story about the last one hundred pictures found on the camera of a missing girl - a girl with great ambitions of becoming a world recognized photographer and photojournalist.
“Girl with Camera” is an experimental ghost story. This ghost story creates a more lasting haunting experience for the reader by using the graphic novel to examine the ghostly fragmentary nature of all stories, all storytelling, and the ends to which we will go with our minds to create a sense of purpose, a sense of destiny and well-being in a hostile, lonely, violent universe. In this graphic novel, the structure and genesis of storytelling is broken down into fragmentary words and pictures in order to examine how our thirst for meaning, for stability, cohesion, consistency and continuity in our lives creates a logic of its very own - a logic supplied by both reader and author - that brings (imaginary or real) order to chaos and gives a sense of permanence to our existence where none may in fact exist.
"Will I ever see you again?"
The question hung in the air, written in silver light on her face. The ocean waves crashed against each other, rocking the old wooden dock they were standing on. He turned to the waves, envying them. Whether he answered "yes" or "no", the waves would stay the same; nothing could change them...nothing could kill them. The ocean is forever, like love, but unlike life, happiness, anger, joy, and pain...The waves will always thrash about, but life will end.
For those wondering what this is, we over at Speculative Fiction Authors group started a game of sorts where we try to develop a story line by line.
It works like this, one person write a line of a story in a thread and the next person writes the next line of the story. You can write however you think the next line might go. We continued adding lines until we had this story, or until the weekend was over, whichever came first.
