Please don't. Apart from the poor ethics of using LLMs, there's the fact that they are frequently just plain wrong.
I would be among those unfollowing if you chose this route.

The blur really evokes how fast those whiskers go when they think about food, though!

Usually the people I'm ghostwriting for have some kind of established marketing edifice that I simply do not.
(And are potentially better at selling stuff than writing it, given that they hired me...)

I recall almost nothing else about my early gifted classes, but I remember the turtle. (No turtle icon for us, though. Only triangle.)

I tried duloxetine for a bit before I knew I had MCAS. (Rx for fibromyalgia.)
I didn't get any worse and I got some fatigue relief from it.
Sadly, that only lasted for ~2wks after each dose increase, no pain relief. So it was a dud in the long run, but nothing got worse.
Good luck if you try it!

In case it's useful to anyone: I've found Sailor Kiwaguro to be a good replacement for Noodler's Heart of Darkness (opaque, waterproof, dries quickly).
Sadly much more expensive, but enriches fewer Nazis.

We were about 2 hours outside DC, and I still grew up knowing it as National Airport.

Nghi Vo's Singing Hills Cycle is a fun one - short fantasy novellas about a travelling historian monk and their talking hoopoe companion. The narrator, Natalie Naudus does a really good job.

Originality is damned-nigh impossible, and your version of a premise will be its own thing.
And if you complete a draft, only to discover that it feels too close to an existing work, that is what editing is for! ^_^

Mast cells also release a *bunch* of different mediators/sometimes you need a really specific antihistamine.
I have a (comparatively mild) version of MCAS that didn't respond to Benadryl or H1 blockers, but mast cell stabilizers (ketotifen, cromolyn - both sadly Rx-only) did help some.
