When Your Work Forgets You First
When Your Work Forgets You First
What if you worked your whole life on something important… and the world erased you instead? That question is at the heart of Thesis of the Unremembered, a gothic psychological horror story set inside an elite university where knowledge doesn’t just get studied—it feeds. This is a story about a doctoral student who finishes a thesis only to discover that no one remembers being there for the defense. Not the committee. Not the supervisors. Not even the records. The work exists. The author… starts to fade.
This book taps into a quiet fear many people carry: What if I disappear, and only my work remains? As the story unfolds, names vanish from citations, mentors slip out of memory, and the university itself begins to feel alive—watching, waiting. The horror isn’t loud or bloody. It’s slow, creeping, and deeply unsettling. It asks the reader to question who really owns ideas, and what it costs to think something truly new.
What makes Thesis of the Unremembered different is how real it feels. The setting is familiar. The fear is subtle. The terror comes from systems we trust—schools, records, authority—turning cold and predatory. This is dark academia taken to its most disturbing edge, where originality isn’t praised… it’s punished.
If you love stories that stay in your head, stories that make you uneasy long after you finish reading, this one is for you. Thesis of the Unremembered isn’t just a book—it’s a warning. Some ideas want to be written. Others want to erase the writer.
Coming soon. Remember it… while you still can.
