The Dead Pixel Society

The Dead Pixel Society
©2026 Zoë Taylor

Clarity Prep was sold as the pinacle of perfection, a place where the top students can become even better at whatever their chosen life goals, but the realityis far more complex, especially for a closeted transgirl like Lewis "Ariana" Chambers.

Even after an unexpected event forces her to spend a night in the girls' dorm, forces her to confront her true self and finally come out to her friends and to the school administrative staff, it only presents a new set of challenges for her long term. She quickly learns that the only thing worse than being a nobody in a school full of pixel perfection, is being somebody. To make matters worse, she seems to be trolled by decades old notes left behind by previous students who formed "The Dead Pixel Society" - an homage to the 1989 film, The Dead Poets' Society.

Is the Society still around? Are they still recruiting misfits like her, or is she going to have to resurrect it from the ashes just to survive four years of Clarity Prep with her sanity ihntact?

And what's with Madison Fox? In a school where everyone is performing to perfection, what deep, dark secrets is the Queen Bee hiding?
