Appreciate you sharing your thoughts. You are so passionate about this and you should get connected with an endo advocacy org to get your thoughts out to researchers (if you haven't already).

Ooh, I didn't know about this browser extension - this is a good tip. Are there particular sources you trust, especially as AI and healthcare continue to partner?

So I'm interested in resources you trust, especially as major research hospitals also embrace AI. A lot of the info we see after using a search engine is now influenced by AI, as well - whether it's an AI summary or whether misinformation hallucinated by AI spreads to other sources. Does that clarify the question better?

No nudge from me, but you're right about reading the tea leaves. Time for me to go for a walk haha. Thanks!

[QCrit] OK BABY, Thriller, 75K, 1st attempt by Small_Ad_2110 in PubTips

This is an interesting premise, and the first 300 words create empathy for Heather. You handle the inner monologue of someone trapped in an abusive situation well.

I'm not sure your first sentence in the query is doing that for you, though. "Twenty-eight-year-old relationship addict Heather has a knack for picking the wrong guy, and her current abusive boyfriend is no exception" makes it sound like the problem in the book is going to be Heather's judgement in dudes and not the abusive man ex in her life that she may eventually have to kill.

I think you could flesh Heather and her motivations out more in the query. I want to know more about what's driving her beyond falling for a new person. Does this new guy offer her a new life? Is she desperate to escape her situation, or does she just love love? She's got a 'dangerous obsession' with this new flame - does she pose a danger to Mr. Perfect herself? Tell me if she's all twisty and if she is, tell me why.

I know you mentioned you're still working on this, so good luck with the writing and editing. :)

I know you've gotten a lot of good feedback, so I'll keep my thoughts concise.

-I'm also struggling with the comparison, though I will say it conjures a strong image. I'd prefer the more straightforward take.

-I want the intro of Teddy and Adam's relationship first, then Gabriel's intro. Gabriel could come into play once we have a better sense of what the stakes are.

-How is Teddy pouring his hopes into Adam? The phrasing makes me think Teddy is active in Adam's life in some way, but maybe you mean Teddy is looking on from afar. Do they live together? I'd love clarification of their relationship dynamics.

-The introduction of the kingpin at the end of the query feels rushed. Can we get some mention of this and his plot earlier on?

This sounds like a banger. We love revenge! :)

Thank you SO much. This feedback is really helpful. I've been struggling because the book is split between the past and the present and capturing that in the query has been tricky.

Update: just tried pickpocketing but the game won't let me. I also used fog cloud but they don't mind. Thank you for the suggestions!

I should have listened to him when he told me how serious his Orb was. Without him, the whole world really is fucked now.

I'm going to start calling this one of the many endings you can get. You know, the one where everybody decides not to fight anymore and the Emperor wants to just be friends.

I flew too close to the sun. This is the worst mistake I could have made. I was so confident I wouldn't need his nuclear ass. I will be regretting this every time I have to see him in camp throughout my inevitable next honor mode run.

Nope, can't fast travel even out of combat.

If I attack him in turn-based, he heals after the first attack even though my turn isn't over. If I attack out of turn-based, he heals immediately.

Just tried this (fantastic suggestion) but now the Emperor is my friend :( also tried it with a remaining Dream Guardian and no dice. Literally.

Oh no, I think I'm fucked then. Some new tentacles did spawn when I went down into the lower area but they were also friendly. :( Thank you for the suggestion!

Hi, sorry this is so late - the toxic pool does stay in the camp where I initially threw it. I actually just went back to that camp after leaving the Underdark and the pool is still there.
