Content Warnings

Some readers have requested content warnings.

My books are, first and foremost, meant to be funny. Many of the characters have traumatic backgrounds and gruesome events sometimes happen, but none of these are described graphically. That being said, some readers are more sensitive than others and it doesn’t hurt to have this information available.

Note: I can’t guarantee that this list covers everything that might bother you. If you spot something missing, contact me and I’ll consider adding it.

If you don’t like the idea of content warnings or think they’ll spoil something, go away. This page isn’t for you.

Items in BLUE are referenced only. Items in RED with an asterisk (*) are depicted on the page.
