Overview

One cigarette. One glitch. Every life he could have lived came crashing in at once. On a quiet porch in Texas, Ivan smokes some old weed, and his reality shatters. Suddenly, he's flooded with thousands of timelines-every branch, every choice, every version of himself that died young or lived wrong. His skull feels like it's splitting as he holds them all, a superposition of existences that demands he prune them down, one phone call at a time, to survive. From toxic exes to lost friends, each conversation deletes a universe until only three remain. He chooses one, thinking he's saved himself. But a year later, the truth hits: he picked the wrong timeline. The other two still whisper in the dark, ghosts of murdered possibilities, while this ""right"" one has remade him-sharper mind, sleepless nights, a stranger in his own life. ""The physicists can debate many-worlds and wave-function collapse all they want. I don't care about the theory anymore. I care that sometimes, in the quiet before dawn on the Slope, I can still feel the other two timelines breathing against the back of my neck like ghosts that know I murdered them."" Part quantum horror, part raw confession, Wrong Timeline is a mind-bending novella about grief, reality's fragility, and the cost of seeing behind the curtain. Inspired by a true event, it blurs fiction and fact, urging you to question your own branches. For fans of Philip K. Dick's alternate realities, Ted Chiang's philosophical sci-fi, and the ego-death dread of Annihilation by Jeff VanderMeer. Read it like contraband. Because if this happened to him, it could happen to you.
