ABOUT US

Blaise Harris, CEO and founder of the book publishing company WrittenImages, exemplifies resilience and purpose-driven creativity. Founded in 2018 during Harris's time of incarceration, WrittenImages emerged as a testament to his resolve to transform his life and inspire others. Motivated by his daughter and a desire to create a positive legacy, Harris began writing to prove to her-and himself-that his life could reflect hope and moral integrity, even in challenging circumstances.

WrittenImages has since grown into a company that combines storytelling with social impact. A portion of its proceeds is dedicated to donating free books and colored pencils to children, advancing its mission to foster literacy and ethical growth. The company prioritizes encouraging readers of all ages to engage with literature, with a simple but powerful advocacy: read one chapter a day.

What sets WrittenImages apart is its unique creative process and the profound symbolism of its roots. Remarkably, the illustrations for his children's books are the work of an artist who is also incarcerated, emphasizing a shared narrative of redemption and creativity flourishing in unlikely circumstances. These hand-drawn visuals, coupled with Harris's evocative writing, lend authenticity and depth to the company's body of work.

In a world where challenges often overshadow opportunities, Writtenlmages provides a refreshing narrative: that creativity, education, and ethical values can serve as a bridge to a brighter future. Through its books and initiatives, the company continues to advocate for the power of reading, the importance of storytelling, and the potential for positive change in every individual.
