    About this ebook

    He's wondering if he's been dead this whole time, like Bruce Willis.
    In the Sixth Sense, that is, not generally. He's pretty sure Bruce Willis hasn't been dead this whole time.

    Even though he can remember being at his sister's wedding, he's not in a single photo, even though he's certain he posed in them.
    The voices beg the question; what if it wasn't *his* sister's wedding? What if he accidentally crossed into a parallel reality?
    And if he did, how will he get home?

    Lee Isserow

    Lee Isserow is an award-winning comedy writer and filmmaker, with over fifteen years spent trawling the back streets and dark alleys of the entertainment industry. He's pretty sure he has some traits of autism, because he's been constantly working and obscenely prolific for the entire duration, writing over a hundred screenplays, many of which he's adapting into forthcoming books, because very few people are willing to turn them into movies. For now. He lives in Liverpool, England because he accidentally bought a house there. He's not quite sure how that happened - but assumes part of that is because he used to drink a lot.

      My wife, Gin, once knocked gently on my head, as if it were a door. “Hello,” she kept saying. “Hello. Who’s in there?” She and our therapist, Dr. Sherby, laughed a little about this, so I did, too. What fun. Keep knocking on my head like that, like i

      I was wondering if I had been dead the whole time, like Bruce Willis. In the Sixth Sense, that is, not generally. Pretty sure Bruce Willis hasn't been dead this whole time, and if he has, someone at the Henson Company deserves an award.

      This wasn't a usual train of thought.

      This was a reaction to flicking through my sister's wedding photos, and realising that I wasn't in a single one. My memory couldn't be trusted, memory can never be trusted, but I could clearly remember standing in line with the rest of the family. They were posing awkwardly, I was posing confidently. A fixed half-smile on my face, head slightly pointed down, left leg ahead of the right, waist twisted towards the camera, shoulders back and chest out.

      Yes, I know too much about how to pose.

      You spend time with enough photographers and
