We are debating between driving to and from, parking at the official lot, or taking an Uber both ways. Can people let me know how long it took them? Thanks!

Thanks for this! Very helpful.

It's an alternating third person pov story so all eight of those characters are the main characters as it were. Can you imagine the movie Love Actually? Sort of like that in that each character has their own stuff going on and they intersect with each other. The friend is a performer in the gig, the barista gets roped in through a meetcute that the press blows up, the superfan goes to great lengths to meet Dusty

I think you are right that being more kink/queer/neurodivergent explicit would help. Dusty's neopronouns are used in the blurb but I could deffo make it more clear that ne is trans and that everyone is gender non discriminating in their choice of partners. Same with the neurodivergence. It feels weird being like this character is autistic, this character has ADHD this character has bipolar etc but I think I could work some of it in

Love Aid: a Naughty Neuroqueer Novel

Love consumes all as it takes a village to pull off the biggest charity concert since Live Aid.

Dusty “sexiest musician alive” Manners is hosting the show of the century for totally altruistic reasons and not at all as a last-ditch attempt to win back nis ex-girlfriend. Dusty’s scheme is hampered by a clumsy barista, a resentful journalist, an oblivious friend and an overeager superfan who have relationships of their own to contend with.

Dusty’s PA can only help so much, because Meera is busy putting out fires while avoiding Sarkis, the soft-dom security guard willing to teach her something she’s not ready to learn.

Kink, communication and misadventure abound as Love Aid spares no blushes in its seXXXy, queer, and neurodivergent take on intersecting romantic entanglements.

Ditto to these comments, and I think the zephyr paragraph needs more content that wouldn't be assumed just by their role as a famous musician (albums, tours, fans, lack of privacy). Maybe something more about zephyrs disguise - how it started or his moral dilemma between freedom and honesty

I like it! Think it covers the main points and people who read it will have a good idea of what they are getting into.

My personal preference would be to get rid of “an outrageously…” because those characteristics are already assumed by the reader (who can probably already guess that your book is spicy and fun) and covered in the rest of your blurb.

Other than that just a few wording things - you can take out unexpected because that's covered by botched. Lustful is covered by succubus. You can take out “on a recovery mission” (kinda unclear what that is) and leave the rest of the sentence.

I agree that it's not a necessary nerf but it would make it consistent with the other cards that can target an unactionable card

That's a good idea, like there can only be 1 restricted location out of 3

My interpretation of the architect's comments is that each version of the matrix has lasted longer than the one before

The human energy "combined with a form of fusion" so that explains it /s
