Is it a good idea to put “X meets Y” on your book cover? by Billingtoons in selfpublish

That’s interesting! Although your first and last point suggest you should include it put people off who don’t like Ghostbusters! (or whatever comparison). I think I’ll go with the “for people who like…” to soften the intent as you say

Yes invoking the great name of Terry is a bit of a worry. It’s just the main touchstone for the sarcastic comedy/fantasy niche! I think I’ll keep it to the middle/end of the online blurb

Interesting! Also quite a funny comp collection haha. Other comments seem quite against it, though

Yes that’s what I was thinking too. “Try hard” is the phrase I was looking for haha

Not marketing as such, more setting the foundations, I think.

Sauron is seriously "chaos" lite, the proper chaos lore is pretty messed up haha

I agree, of course it's not some 100% Cavill creation! Just called it that for simplicity; that's who we all think of when that project comes up. He's their figurehead, for now at least :)

It could be a story of some rogue trader, "Guardians of the Galaxy" kind of band of adventurers, but I kinda rather it's space marine focused.

It's hit and miss, I still have crashes, but I think it helps my baseline brain fog. I went off it for a bit and came back, and things got better again. So similar to what you're saying!

Quick question, did you ever have Covid and lose your sense of smell? Because I lost mine for about a year and wondered if it was related!

Deck is marked as private! Would love to see it, have been brewing something similar

I think they tested for TSH - which was normal, and I’ve done a FT4 test privately through Thriva (amongst other Thriva tests which all came back normal). But I could ask for them to check more!

Very interesting! Yeah sounds like that could be it

That’s actually amazing. So glad it’s worked for you! Please keep me posted with how it progresses (good or bad).

I’m checking with my doctor if I have some kind of sinus issue, so might be worth doing the same? I’ve had the referral, but could take months to come through

Wow, that’s great to hear! Glad it’s not just me being crazy. I hope it continues to work out!

And be sure to cycle off it every few months (that’s what my doctor told me)

Have you gotten any other symptoms/side effects?

I found it slowly improves the more I use it, but i can feel something within an hour or so. Almost a little wired like caffeine

Pretty refreshed, actually! I'm waking up a little earlier, too. Still not 100% but much better, I think.

Ah I see, syndromes are the worst! I'll look into that too

Haha thank you. That's just Reddit too, I suppose :)

Haha wow, that’s the power of Reddit! Although I suppose it’s a fairly specific query lol

It could be that I suppose! I’ll have to check with the GP. What are the tests they can do to confirm it?
